Preserve a Vital US-Canada Partnership While Resolving Trade Disputes

As a constituent, I urge you to act to reverse the new 50 percent tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods and prevent an escalating trade war with one of America’s closest allies and largest trading partners. These tariffs can increase prices, disrupt North American supply chains, and expose U.S.

There are new leaked documents from the Epstein files available now. They are quite damning of Donald Trump, other government officials, and business leaders. Still, nothing is happening to facilitate real investigations, arrests, and trials of people (mostly white rich men) who have been accused of

Stop the Canada Trade War Before It Costs Americans More

The trade war with Canada needs to end, and you have a responsibility to push back against it. Canada is one of our closest trading partners, and these tariffs are not punishing Ottawa — they are punishing American families and businesses through higher prices and supply chain disruptions. This is

Trump's False "Reverse Surgery" Claim Proves Politicians Don't Belong in Medical Decisions

The president of the United States stood before a crowd and claimed hospitals are performing "reverse surgery" on transgender people "at his order." That statement is false. No such order exists. His executive actions have done the opposite — cutting off care, not mandating procedures. This is not a

40 Trillion Dollars end to end= 3.88 billion miles

Explain how Elon Musk's DOGE cuts result in a $40 TRILLION deficit. Just asking. For reference, our deficit was 0 under Clinton. Looking at historic charts, this is a Republican trend. We are receiving less, and my government will be charging me more.

Protect Against Electric Blackouts That May Disrupt Essential Services for Years

America’s electric grid has a dangerous weakness: critical transformers are hard to replace, yet transformers and substations remain vulnerable to attack, including by drones. Congress should act now to reduce the risk that sabotage, cyberattack, extreme weather, solar activity, or equipment failure

It’s been 200 days since some of the Epstein Files were released from the DOJ. There have been no investigations or arrests despite testimony in the files of horrific crimes. Why? What are you doing to enforce the laws of this country? When will we see arrests? Doing nothing means you are ok wi

The Epstein Files

Just a reminder: I have not forgotten about the Epstein files. It is inexcusable that the perpetrators’ names are still shielded. The women (and men?) who were abused by Epstein and all his friends deserve justice. The billionaires who are avoiding responsibility must be named and prosecuted.

Stop CBP Construction in Big Bend National Park

Bulldozers are tearing up the mouth of Santa Elena Canyon right now. Demand an immediate halt to all ground-disturbing activity in Big Bend National Park. CBP denied the construction was happening, then called it road regrading, then "survey work" — the agency has lied at every turn. DHS waived doz

From a constituent in South Portland, ME

Overnight, President Trump refused to rule out seizing US elections. He has also been quite clear about sending ICE and National Guard to polling stations. While you may say this is only words or ideas, it’s not. He is telegraphing his plans to destroy our democracy under the guise of protecting

If Republicans Want To Fight Corruption, Why Not Start With Trump?

I am writing to express my outrage over the Department of Justice agreement reportedly shielding President Trump, his family, and his businesses from IRS audits.
