  1. Sen. Banks is TRUMP’s Senator stolen from Indiana ! I have sent dozens of e-mail messages on multiple subjects to Sen. Banks office . He has not acknowledged or replied to any of them . TRUMP is his only constituent .

    1. On the other hand, I contacted Jimbo abou the constant waste of money by the Trump administration and illegal tariffs and received a response on how great trump has been on illegal immigration. Banks is the true RINO: create division, suppress minorities, spend money. All opposites of the real Republican Party.
