I don’t think it’s Constitutionally appropriate for members of Congress and the Senate to be writing letters to the Supreme Court as if they were average citizens.

Why not? You don't give up your First Amendment rights when you're elected to Congress.

The real question is that should the Supreme Court strike down Roe next June then what impact that will have on the election?

Appropriate, I said. Yes, they have First Amendment rights out the wazoo, and they exercise nothing else, certainly not their power as elected legislators - I repeat, legislators - to pass laws.
