Undermining critical government programs and giving unchecked authority to private individuals with clear conflicts of interest puts the well-being of millions of Americans at risk. While avoiding a shutdown is important, this bill represents an unacceptable power grab that consolidates decision-making in the hands of those motivated by personal gain rather than the public good. I urge you to reject this partisan legislation that lacks basic oversight and protections. Governing requires balancing interests through good-faith negotiation, not capitulating to extreme demands that weaken our democratic institutions. Stand firm against any measure that does not restore accountability, safeguard vital services, and uphold the principle of government for and by the people.
