It’s time to simplify taxes. Why do we need to file income taxes?The IRS receives all of the information about my income. There’s no good reason why the IRS can’t simply do the calculations and send me a bill. What about deductions? Get rid of them!! Make it easy. Make the standard deduction a

I understand that the Trump administration has proposed giving a parcel of land in Yosemite National park to a private developer. That is outrageous. Yosemite—and all of our national parks—should be off limits to development. Congress needs to act to stop this, now. Thanks.

I just read that the Trump administration is shuttering ⁠two of the three US Department of Agriculture research projects studying cyclospora. Why? This parasite has ⁠sickened tens of thousands of Americans! We should be funding the projects studying it—not cancelling them. I am frustrated beyond bel

Mitch McConnell has been gone from work without leave longer than most American women get for maternity leave when they have a baby if Mitch McConnell cannot be at work then he needs to send a replacement or there needs to be a special election.

Trump is unhinged. Now he wants to change Lake Ontario’s name. He needs to be removed from office immediately before he has destroyed anything else that our (former) great country holds dear. When will legislators do their job and protect us all from this deranged dictator?

Short and to the point, it’s time to abolish the electoral college. We need to stabilize the country from the gross attempts to manipulate voting and ignore the will of the masses for the few rich and uneducated to drive the country.

Electric Shock Gloves

I’m very concerned about the electric shock gloves that DHS plans to buy for ICE agents. It is horrifying enough to learn that such things are already in use in prisons and schools; with the track record ICE has established, we can be absolutely certain ICE will use the gloves abusively and perhaps

Vote no on and oppose the "Clarity" act

I’m furious that Trump’s cryptocurrency company, from which he’s already profited nearly $800 million since he returned to the White House, has received the green light to become a bank and potentially make him even more money. This is outrageous! Congress needs to take action to rein in Trump’s cor

Vote No on CORCA

As a constituent, I urge you to vote NO on CORCA. This bill would give DHS and ICE sweeping new power to track our movements, monitor our associations, and collect our personal data - putting all of our privacy at risk. Please vote NO on CORCA.

ICE Needs Accountability and Oversight, Not More Weapons

I'm writing to urge you to oppose ICE's plan to spend $10–20 million equipping officers with electric shock gloves, and to instead push for real oversight and accountability for the agency's existing use of force. ICE has repeatedly shown it cannot be trusted with the authority it already has. Addi

Stop ICE from purchasing more dangerous weapons

ICE plans to purchase en masse devices called G.L.O.V.E which can administer an electric shock to "effect compliance." These gloves are not to be used on children or disabled people, yet those are two groups ICE frequently targets - I'm sure you can see the problem there. It is long past time for ac

Support State Authority to Prosecute Presidential Financial Fraud

This state law is exactly the kind of accountability measure our legal system needs, and I want you to defend it. No one should be above the law — including a sitting or former president.
