Rep. Melanie Stansbury

Medicare and Medicaid are under attack again.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) fired all staff who oversee contracts with companies that process Medicare claims and pay healthcare providers. Reimbursements could slow to a crawl. Patients doctors, and hospitals will be affected. This is very bad.

3/26/2025 Follow Up: Accountability for Irresponsible Handling of War Plans

I’m following up on my March 26, 2025, email regarding the Signal breach, now compounded by Pete Hegseth and his family’s security violations. This situation demands your immediate action—not only to ensure accountability but also because we are unaware of what other undisclosed conversations may ha

Thank You—But We Need Immediate, Bold Action on ICE Abuses

First, thank you for your consistent opposition to the Trump administration’s attacks on our rights (from LGBTQIA+ equality to immigrant justice). As a non-binary constituent and advocate, I’ve been grateful for your voice. But right now, we need you to go further, faster. The escalating ICE detenti

Unconstitutional ICE Abductions and Torture of Deportees in El Salvador

I write with grave concern about the Trump administration’s escalating violations of constitutional rights and human dignity through Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Recent reports reveal two alarming patterns that demand your immediate attention: 1. ICE’s Unconstitutional Abductions T

Accountability for Irresponsible Handling of War Plans

I am writing to express my deep concern over recent reports that sensitive U.S. war plans were leaked in a private Signal chat, allegedly involving individuals who failed to uphold their duty to protect classified information.

Save Social Security

For 33 years I - and my employer - paid into the Social Security system with the understanding that I’d receive a SS pension after retirement and when eligible. Not one penny should be missing from my monthly payment or the entities responsible (humans) should be arrested and charged with theft. I b

Protect Students of All Ages

Trump just announced that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. will be immediately taking over special education and child nutrition. He has no business overseeing special education, which is part of an entirely different agency. Trump also announced that the Small Business Administration will be taking over stud

Remove Dudek Now! He’s dangerous

Remove Dudek as Commissioner of Social Security!!! He is threatening to shut it all down because he doesn’t like a judge’s ruling to block DOGE from accessing our personal data

This could be the most critical letter you’ll receive in the midst of chaos.

I’ve been yelling about this to anyone who would listen. They wanted to rob us all blind just like Russia does to their citizens. This is the most important story of the history of our country. They’ve been stopped for now, but now prison is the only answer here. Please read. Please. This could be

I am alarmed by the removal of historical documents from federal websites and the restrictions on language concerning diversity, equity, and inclusion in light of Executive Order 14149—Restoring Freedom of Speech and Ending Federal Censorship

It is incredibly disturbing for the president to invoke powers to conduct secret deportations, and claim the people being sent away are violent and hostile Venezuelan gang members without having to prove anything! We already know that he has swept up holders of valid green cards and valid visas, and

I am writing to urge you to stand up to Trump in a more vocal and visible way to protect us. He should not be allowed to defy court orders and deport people who have legal visas or green cards and people who have not committed crimes. I also Object to the influence of Elon Musk because he is instiga

Please reinstate the Regional Farm To Food program

Do not vote for this budget!

TALL AND STAND FOR BETTER. DO NOT FKG CAVE IN TO THE REPUBLICANS. I would rather starve without my Social Security and Medicare than see you cave in to their inhumane budget. STAND

Targeting of Non-Citizens, LGBTQIA+ Citizens, and Activists Like Mahmoud Khalil

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the potential misuse of the Alien Enemies Act and other immigration enforcement measures to target non-citizens, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and activists like Mahmoud Khalil. Recent events, including the detention of Mr. Khalil, a lawful permanent residen

Reject deregulatory "freedom cities" exempt from vital safeguards

The idea of creating so-called "freedom cities" exempt from federal regulations raises significant concerns. Deregulating sectors like biotechnology, nuclear energy, and construction could endanger public health, safety, and the environment. Allowing companies to bypass agencies like the FDA, NRC, a

Hold the Line Against Extreme Republican Spending Bill

I am writing as a concerned constituent to urge you to oppose the extreme Republican continuing resolution that threatens vital programs like Social Security, cuts essential services, and grants excessive power to Trump and DOGE. This bill undermines our communities and further enables the dismantli

STOP MUSK!

Stop musk now! Stop mask from getting into our Social Security benefits information. It’s illegal and it is just wrong!
