Formal Demand for Independent Medical Oversight and National Security Guardrails

To: Sen. Husted, Rep. Beatty, Sen. Moreno

From: A verified voter in Columbus, OH

April 13

I am writing to demand immediate Congressional action regarding the President’s fitness for office. Given the current military escalation with Iran and the Navy blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, the American people deserve objective proof that the Commander-in-Chief possesses the cognitive stability required to lead. The President’s recent rhetoric—ranging from volatile threats to commit war crimes on social media to deeply inappropriate outbursts during the White House Easter Egg Roll—indicates a significant shift in behavior that cannot be dismissed as mere style. A 30/30 MoCA score from a year ago is medically insufficient to gauge executive function needed for leading in a high-stress, rapidly evolving conflict. I am calling on you to take the following three steps: - Co-sponsor the Oversight Commission on Presidential Capacity: Support Representative Jamie Raskin’s bill to establish a non-partisan medical board under the 25th Amendment. We need an independent body of experts, not political appointees, to evaluate presidential fitness. - Mandate a Neurological Briefing: Demand that the White House Physician provide a formal, sworn briefing to Congress regarding the President’s current neurological health, specifically addressing recent reports of erratic behavior. - Assert War Powers Oversight: Ensure that any further escalation of the conflict with Iran is subject to strict Congressional approval. If there are questions regarding the President's impulse control, the legislative branch must act as the primary guardrail. Transparency is not a partisan issue; it is a prerequisite for a functioning democracy. Whether you support this administration’s policies or not, you must ensure that the person making life-or-death decisions is medically fit to do so. I look forward to your response and your public stance on this matter.
