Please stop the tariffs

I’m outraged that Trump’s tariffs will make food, gas, and other essentials more expensive for American families like mine. These tariffs will disrupt supply chains, raise costs for businesses, and put hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk. l ask that you reclaim Congress’s authority and work to bl

The Senate could have stopped this

Today Donald Trump initiated tariffs across the board. All economist agree that this will slow down if not damage the US economy. It also may possibly set us into a global recession. This was allowed because Congress aggregated its responsibilities in allowing the president to declare and maintain a

Secure safe return of wrongly deported Maryland resident

The deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a maximum security prison in El Salvador despite a legal order prohibiting his removal there is deeply concerning. It appears to have been an egregious administrative error that has put an individual's life at risk. While the administration alleges Abrego G

Vote NO on the Save Act

As your constituent, I am asking you to protect my right to vote by voting 'NO' on the SAVE Act when it comes to the floor. Our right to vote is our most central civil right, and the SAVE Act would make it unreasonably harder, even impossible, for tens of millions of Americans to vote, including 6

I'm calling to urge Congress to assert their legal "power of the purse" and demand that crucial USDA funding for food banks, schools, and farmers be restored immediately. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I'm calling to demand that Representative Valerie Foushee oppose H.R. 22, the SAVE Act, which will create unnecessary barriers to voter registration and disenfranchise countless voters, especially women, seniors, and low-income citizens. This bill is designed to block voters despite no real evidence

Vote NO on save act.

The SAVE Act poses a grave threat to voting rights and democratic principles. This harmful legislation would mandate overly restrictive voter ID requirements, enabling widespread disenfranchisement of millions of eligible voters across the country. Strict photo ID laws have been shown to disproporti

Strengthen protocols on handling classified information

Current and former officials have raised serious concerns about sensitive national security information being shared through unclassified channels like the Signal messaging app. While the full extent of potential damage is still being assessed, the mere fact that details regarding military operation

The ongoing saga of Republican senatorial negligence

The magazine WIRED has just published an article on the DOGE and the Social Security legacy computer system. They have made a decision to upgrade the COBOL computer system. The plan is to complete this transition in three or four months. At least that’s what they’re saying. Since this is a federal c

From a verified voter in Durham, NC

The hypocrisy of the administration in punishing a career DHS employee for an inadvertent, non-classified information breach while excusing political appointees who leaked classified military operation details is appalling. Such a blatant double standard undermines principles of equal treatment and

Publicizing a military operation - and getting away with it

Haphazardly disclosing sensitive information about a planned and ongoing military operation cannot be permissible. At what point does this flip over to treason? But wait! There is no one left to hold these people accountable. Are we willing to let the current administration pillage, burn and hand ov

I am shocked and outraged over incompetent use of Signal for military ops.

I’m writing today because I'm shocked and outraged over the incompetent and careless use of a commercial app to discuss highly-classified military operations by Trump administration officials. I ask that you.. demand the immediate resignations of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and National Secur

I am appalled at the scandal of Pete Hegseth's Signal group chat. If any military officer revealed top secret, detailed information like this, they would be immediately dishonorably discharged, at the very least. I remember when Hilary Clinton's emails, which did not contain sensitive military infor

Using SIGNAL app for government business to avoid records being kept is against the law. We see you, anyone who is keeping silent. Be Brave. Save Democracy.

Tulsi Gabbard is a disgrace to this country, and should be held accountable for perjury. Watching her lie about things where a transcript exists is like watching a cat trying to cover up on linoleum. Embarrassing. Be brave! Save Democracy!

The notion that Mike Johnson is *floating* the idea of DISSOLVING the Federal Courts because they are upholding our Constitution is an outrage to America o get bent! ns! We believe in the Constitution! We believe in the rule of law! You took an oath to uphold the Constitution. Please do your job!

What do I think should be the consequence of the leaked classified military text fest? Resignations, starting with the national security advisor and the secretary of defense. These people are unqualified at best, maliciously incompetent at worst. They must go! Be brave! Stand up for Democracy and

History will note whether or not you supported the constitution of this country or you didn’t.

Musk cuts at IRS are COSTING us money, NOT saving

The proposed DOGE cuts to the IRS workforce are deeply concerning and risk costing our nation dearly in lost tax revenue. According to reports, these cuts aimed at downsizing the agency by nearly 20% before the tax filing season could lead to a staggering $500 billion drop in tax receipts this year

I am deeply concerned about the closed-door conversations taking place about the future of foreign assistance and USAID. The blueprint for how to jam USAID's work into other organizations should not be drafted in secret. I am writing to ask you to insist on an open and public process for this decisi

I am not a Fraudster

I just saw an interview with Howard Ludnick the commerce Secretary on MS NBC… about Social Security…. He is saying that if any of us Social Security recipients miss a check from the government….

The Department of Education has a valuable role!

Uphold freedom of speech and academic freedom for visitors

It is absolutely outrageous and unacceptable that a French researcher was denied entry into the United States solely for expressing criticism of the Trump administration's policies on scientific research. This action infringes upon the fundamental principles of free speech and academic freedom that

We are a Nation of Laws

We are a nation of laws. We have a long and proud heritage of observing those laws, even when they don’t suit our immediate needs. The preservation of the rule of law is the bedrock of our country. The minute we ignore the courts and duly appointed judges we are finished as a nation. I don’t believe

Thank you for taking the time to read this. As your constituent, I appreciate it. Please vote NO on the SAVE act! It is premeditated voter disenfranchis ement, plain and simple. Every Citizen Gets A Vote. Otherwise, we have taxation without representation, and you know how that ended for the LAST

FREE MAHMOUD KHALIL

The detention of Mahmoud Khalil is illegal and he should be released immediately. As a legal resident of the United States, the Constitution affords him all of the legal protections similar to a US citizen and the government has shared ZERO evidence that supports his arrest. I don’t agree with his p
