I did one better; I'm having a nutritional shake that's got actual vitamins in it that are good for me.

My goal to cut down a bit on my ridiculous coffee consumption has been fairly successful. Living on caffeine isn't good for a person's blood pressure or fine motor skills.

Apparently the full statement: "While the Senate made modest changes to the legislation, some of those changes undermined parts of the bill I do support, and others were insufficient to address my concerns with the overall size and scope of the bill. Although I support the Senate’s effort to reduce the number of wealthier households that will receive stimulus checks, they did not go far enough, and other changes — like removing the minimum wage increase or providing a lower unemployment benefit — undermined policies that I support. I voted for a $15 minimum wage in the last Congress, and given the opportunity, I intend to do so again"

Great yeah voting against something based on your personal tiny little issues that don't go 100% your way is totally the thing to do. You should tell your constituents to do that!
