Corruption threatens the foundations of our democracy. The disregard for ethics rules, firing of oversight officials without cause, suspending enforcement of anti-corruption laws, and prioritizing loyalty over competence severely undermine government integrity. This administration exploits federal agencies for personal gain rather than serving the public interest. Such rampant corruption breeds distrust, enables cronyism, and erodes transparency and accountability. Urgent action is needed to rein in this destructive corruption before it further corrodes our Republic. We call on our representatives to uphold their oath by checking the president's self-serving abuses, restoring ethics in government, and making coordinated public statements against corruption.
