Reclaim the Moral High Ground

To: Sen. Banks, Sen. Young, Rep. Houchin

From: A constituent in Bloomington, IN

March 20

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the ethical conduct and international policy decisions of the current administration. As your constituent, I believe these issues demand immediate congressional attention and action. The United States has long been a moral leader on the global stage, but the administration's approach to international relations has severely compromised our standing. Recent actions that concern me include: • Abrupt withdrawals from critical international agreements without strategic alternatives • Foreign policy shifts that appear impulsive and inconsistent with long-term national interests • Embracing authoritarian leaders while alienating traditional democratic allies • Conduct in diplomatic affairs that prioritizes short-term transactional gains over enduring American values Additionally, the numerous ethics violations within the administration represent a troubling departure from the standards Americans expect from their leadership: • Documented violations of the Hatch Act with minimal consequences • Conflicts of interest that blur the line between public service and personal gain • Undermining of essential oversight and accountability mechanisms • Erosion of longstanding norms regarding transparent and ethical governance I strongly urge you to: • Support congressional investigations into ethics violations • Advocate for stronger enforcement of existing ethics laws • Use your public platform to reaffirm American commitment to democratic values • Ensure appropriations bills include provisions that support our democratic allies Our nation's ethical standing and international credibility cannot wait for future election cycles to be restored. As my representative, I expect you to take meaningful action now to address these pressing concerns.
