An Open Letter

To: Rep. Feenstra, Sen. Grassley, Sen. Ernst

From: A verified voter in Ames, IA

February 17

Let’s cut to the chase: over 1,000,000 Americans lost their jobs in 2025. Before you even think about blaming President Biden, understand this—you and your “one big beautiful bill” are responsible. The policies you championed have caused real harm to real people. Families are losing their livelihoods, businesses are shuttering, and you are the reason. Excuses and political finger-pointing won’t fix this. The law you passed has had predictable, disastrous consequences, and Americans deserve accountability—not hollow reassurances. It’s time for you to answer honestly: why did you enact policies that decimated jobs, and what are you doing to undo the damage you’ve caused? Your constituents are watching. The consequences of your decisions are visible in every closed business and every unemployed worker across the country. Do not attempt to hide behind partisan talking points. You created this crisis, and it is on you to fix it. I expect a thorough explanation, and I expect it soon. The American people will not forget who caused this.
