I am deeply concerned about the current state of governance. Economic gains made in recent years have been eroded, and many families are worse off than they were before. I am also troubled by recent reporting on serious allegations involving the President, including accounts from FBI interviews that the Department of Justice reportedly withheld from public release, and credibility concerns raised by officials who conducted those interviews. Regardless of party, allegations of this severity — involving a minor — deserve full transparency and independent scrutiny, not selective disclosure.
I am equally concerned about the President’s fitness to serve. Public, televised moments of confusion and disorientation during meetings with foreign leaders are not partisan talking points — they are matters of national security and public accountability. I ask that you press for clear, independent review of these concerns through appropriate constitutional channels, rather than deferring or staying silent.
More broadly, I ask you to represent the people who elected you — not donors, not party leadership, not personal ambition. Growing numbers of Americans, myself included, are seriously considering alternatives like democratic socialism precisely because they feel abandoned by both parties’ current direction. That shift should be a signal, not a talking point to dismiss.
I am not asking you to violate your principles. I am asking you to use the oversight, investigative, and legislative tools of your office honestly and fully, on behalf of the people you represent.
I will be watching how you respond, and I will share that response with my community.
Respectfully,
