Tiger Woods should not be immune from consequences because he is dating a Trump

To: Sen. Armstrong, Rep. Cole, Sen. Lankford

From: A constituent in Norman, OK

April 4

I am writing because I am increasingly frustrated with what appears to be a pattern in this country: accountability for everyday Americans, and exceptions for the powerful. Let me be clear—if Tiger Woods were to drive under the influence and be arrested, he should face the same legal consequences as anyone else. No special treatment. No quiet dismissals. No backdoor influence. That is the baseline expectation in a country that claims to uphold the rule of law. Yet what Americans continue to see is the opposite. When public figures have access to power—whether through wealth, celebrity, or proximity to individuals like Donald Trump—there is a growing perception that consequences become negotiable. Even the suggestion that someone could “make a call” and avoid real accountability is corrosive to public trust. This is bigger than one person. It is about whether the laws you help uphold actually apply equally to everyone, or only to those without influence. I am asking you directly: what are you doing to ensure that justice is applied consistently, regardless of status? Because from where I stand, the credibility of our legal system is being undermined by the very perception that there are two sets of rules. The American people are paying attention. We expect fairness, transparency, and accountability—not privilege. I expect a response that outlines how you intend to address this issue.
