Instead of restricting education, Ohio should invest in affordability, research, and student success
Stop the Save Act
The SAVE Act would severely restrict the freedom to vote for millions of eligible U.S. citizens. This draconian legislation imposes unnecessary documentary proof of citizenship requirements for voter registration that could disenfranchise up to 13 million citizens who lack ready access to birth cert
I’m very concerned about comments made by our vice president JD Vance that the executive branch does not have to listen to judicial orders. There have been several federal judges that have stopped a few of the executive orders that Trump has put through, and apparently these have been ignored . Thi

Cuts to NIH overheads will cost Ohio $194 million per year
I am very concerned about how the proposed cuts to NIH overhead costs will affect universities in Ohio. In Ohio, six schools received more than $10 million from NIH in 2024 for a total of ~$700 million. Of that, $440 million went directly to research and $260 million went to facilities and administr
Overhead rates for research universities
I am a constituent who is very concerned about the current administration’s attacks on science and research. By slashing overhead costs from NIH grants, the latest policy will devastate research universities and cause job losses in Ohio. Leading research institutions like Ohio State University will

End Anti Christian Bias and Ban Faith Office
This appointment of overtly Christian advisors and the creation of a White House Faith Office raises concerns about the government's commitment to protecting freedom of religion for all Americans. As taxpaying citizens, those of non-Christian faiths like Judaism, Islam, Paganism, as well as the non-
Protect NOAA's vital environmental missions and funding
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) plays a vital role in protecting our nation's environment, communities, and economies. Recent reports of staffers attempting to access NOAA's confidential data systems and threatening cuts to the agency are deeply concerning. NOAA's work in
Condemn anti-Christian bias, uphold religious liberty for all
This executive order promoting an anti-Christian bias by the government is extremely concerning from a freedom of religion standpoint. Favoring a Christian bias will put many people back in the closet, including LGBTQIA individuals and those of different religious backgrounds. To favor and promote r
Protect Department of Education to ensure equal educational opportunities
The potential abolition of the Department of Education raises serious concerns about the severe impact it could have on millions of students, especially those from vulnerable populations relying on critical educational services and resources. Eliminating this federal agency would jeopardize essentia
Say NO to House Bill 26
House Bill 26 would defund sanctuary cities in Ohio, forcing them to cooperate with federal deportation efforts. This misguided legislation undermines community trust in law enforcement and makes communities less safe by driving undocumented residents into the shadows. Local police should be focused
Protect Social Security and Medicare from DOGE
With the concerning actions of Elon Musk's unauthorized agency DOGE gaining unprecedented access to sensitive government systems and personal data, urgent action is needed to safeguard vital programs like Social Security and Medicare. Musk, an unelected billionaire with no governmental oversight, no
Our federal science agencies
I am a scientist and researcher who is concerned about the current administration’s attacks on the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. In the name of removing “DEI” language from grants, staff at NIH and NSF are pulling ANY grant that uses “banned” keywords. The words
Preserve Department of Education's critical role in public schools
While the intent to streamline or reorganize government agencies is understandable, completely closing the Department of Education would be detrimental to our education system. The Department plays a vital role in supporting public schools, promoting equal access to education, and providing funding
I’m very concerned and angry over Elon Musk’s access to the US treasury department payment system. It is against the law for him to access my private protected information on those servers and download them to his own servers. This information contains my name address, birthdate Social Security nu
Stop Elon Musk
You must stop Elon Musk. Shutting down USAID with no warning is illegal. He has no power to do it. Only Congress does. It’s immoral. Millions of lives will be endangered by the whims of the richest man in the world WHO WAS NOT ELECTED BY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. this is so wrong. This is destroying our
Stop Musk’s illegal behavior
The definition of a coup is "a sudden decisive exercise of force in politics and especially the violent overthrow or alteration of an existing government by a small group". It's true there is no violence (yet). But an unelected billionaire is usurping the powers of congress, and you are doing nothin
Reject unfit Kash Patel nomination as FBI director
We cannot confirm Kash Patel as the next FBI director due to several concerning factors regarding his background and statements. He lacks senior-level law enforcement experience and has never held a Senate-confirmed position, atypical for an FBI director nominee. More alarmingly, Patel advanced fals
Explore Condorcet method for fair, spoiler-free elections
The Condorcet method of voting is a robust and fair approach that deserves strong consideration for improving our democratic processes. It avoids the spoiler effect by ensuring that a candidate's election is not influenced by the presence or absence of other candidates, provided they do not win. Thi
Check and Balance the Supreme Court
I request you propose a bill implementing 10 year term limits on supreme court justices and implement an ethics and legal committee to check the power of the Supreme Court of the United States.

Implement preferential voting to fix the voting system
I would like you to propose a bill that ends all corporate and individual donations to campaigns for political office and instead give everyone running for political office the same flat budget to run their campaign on. The bill should also ensure that the individual running does not use any of thei
Tax the rich to balance the budget.
I would like you to propose a bill increase taxes on corporations and close tax loopholes exploited by millionares, billionares, and corporations. The bill should include a clause that breaks up major companies and corporations that have near monopolistic control over their markets. The bill should
Stop Tariffs
President Trump's tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China have sparked retaliatory tariffs and strained trade relations with key U.S. allies and economic partners. The tariffs risk escalating a trade war that could ultimately harm American businesses, workers, and consumers through higher
America is in crisis
I am very concerned what is going on in America right now. Our democracy is being threatened and me and my family our scared. I have loved ones that are Trans, gay and immigrants, black friends. If I could move out of this country I would, but I am poor and do not have the funds. Who is going to pro
Take back Congress's power.
The so-called "Department of Government Efficiency" is not an executive branch agency or department. Those can only be created and funded by Congress. It is essentially a private militia of unvetted volunteers who have no security clearance and whose only qualification is loyalty to Trump. Elon Musk
Ensure proper oversight and security at OPM data systems
I am writing to express grave concerns over the actions taken by Elon Musk and his team at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Reports indicate that Musk's aides have locked career civil servants out of computer systems containing personal data of millions of federal employees. This not only r
Trump fired everyone in charge of airplane safety, and a week later planes started crashing into each other.
Last night's illegal order to freeze federal funds allocated by Congress is nothing less than a coup attempt. It's an attempt to steal Congress' power of the purse. As you know better than anyone, Congress must have that power. For the survival of democracy and the prevention of a dictatorship, we n
Fight Freeze on Federal Aid
I am calling on you to speak out against President Trump’s actions on Monday in freezing all federal aid. This is blatantly illegal; the Executive Branch can’t unilaterally decide to ignore laws that were passed by Congress, especially when it comes to financial aid. You must take action, and clari
