Protect US Aid. Resist DOGE.

To: Rep. Lynch, Sen. Markey, Sen. Warren

From: A constituent in Jamaica Plain, MA

February 10, 2025

I would like to emphasize the importance of upholding the Constitution and the principles of separation of powers that are foundational to our nation. It is concerning to observe the influence that individuals like Elon Musk appear to have on our political landscape, particularly given his lack of experience in governance, finance, or public service aimed at safeguarding citizens and promoting overall well-being. We should be cautious about allowing the values associated with DOGE (whose name is based on a cryptocurrency meme!) to shape our governmental ethics. It is vital to advocate for the restoration of U.S. AID and to communicate to all parties involved, including President Trump and Mr. Musk, that they cannot constitutionally overturn legislation enacted by Congress. I urge you to exercise your constitutional powers to uphold integrity and prevent any actions that could undermine our democratic processes.
