Support re-naming the Senate Office Building after Senator John McCain
The Issue
Naming the Senate Office Building after the late Senator John McCain forever etches his sacrifice and selfless contribution into the fabric of our nation. By renaming the senate building, his character and bipartisan leadership becomes a daily reminder and measure of great leadership in the hearts of our elected leaders.
Senators Chuck Schumer (D) and Jeff Flake (R) have stated their desire to make this change (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/chuck-schumer-proposes-renaming-russell-senate-office-building-after-john-mccain/ and can use the support of ordinary citizens. Your vote here provides tangible, public support to their efforts and helps make this important change happen.
Furthermore, the building is currently named after Richard Russell; co-author of the "Southern Manifesto"; a 1956 effort to fight integration and suppress minorities. Russell's is an unfortunate legacy that should be pushed into the bowels of history, making way for this honor to John McCain; a shining light of leadership, character and patriotism.
