An Open Letter

To: Sen. Duckworth, Rep. Kelly, Sen. Durbin

From: A constituent in Chicago Heights, IL

July 1

I’m feeling exasperated because republicans are literally trying to to kill off the disabled between the budget bill and Kennedy’s dangerous antivaccine rhetoric. And it seems there is nothing that can be done to stop this insanity as the SCOTUS and even the republicans keep turning the presidency into a literal dictatorship. They’re not going to stop the cruelty and the inhumanity either. I have been hoping against hope and now it seems like there is nothing to hope for anymore. I am glad my mom will finally be getting her facility to facility transfer. But despite submitting evidence that she is no longer qualified to be under the VA fiduciary program, they have done NOTHING to release her from that. The amount of money withheld from my mom each month beyond what the fiduciary does pay in the way of bills is enough to make sure I can eat, get medicines I need, or even possibly enough to take on one repair or afford installation of an air unit so my cat and I aren’t basically heat stroking in our house. How long is reasonable to give them to take up her case after evidence has been submitted that she is no longer incompetent and no longer qualifies for the fiduciary services that have caused so many issues for my family because of their refusal to cover the expenses of the declared dependents? They had two years they could have worked on putting a wheelchair lift or ramp on the house but refused because “the daughter is living in the house.” They could do her wheelchair modifications on the vehicle but refused because because “the daughter drives the car.” Honeys, the daughter is the declare dependent and the mother is getting transferred and will need transportation to the VA. NOW is when the vehicle modification needs to happen, not next year, Also, unban TikTok. I just found an app that is even worse. It is called Flip. They make it sound like you will earn money (you earn coupons to buy things). They also promote dangerous garbage like how to smoke a bong, guns, and misinformation about COVID. It is scary the content over there. If we had not allowed misinformation about COVID and vaccines, we would not be facing the deadly measles outbreaks and a moron who is trying to terminate the MMR. Ask this rubella baby how she feels about that. Impeachment is needed now. Not later. Evidence came out that this is the most illegitimate presidency ever and that cheating did in fact happen. He never won. She did.
