You need to open a formal investigation into President Trump's conflicts of interest and self-dealing. The polling is clear: 68% of Americans say Trump is not focused on problems most Americans face. That's not a partisan number — 25% of Republicans and 77% of independents agree. The public sees what's happening, and they expect Congress to act.
The economic damage is real. Nearly half of Americans — 49% — say they are worse off today than a year ago. Gas price approval has cratered from 46% to 33% since the Iran war began, and 73% of Americans blame Trump at least somewhat for rising prices. In swing states like Michigan and Georgia, cost-of-living approval has dropped sharply. These aren't abstract trends; they're families getting squeezed while this administration pursues policies that benefit Trump personally.
Congress has oversight authority for exactly this reason. Use it. Constituents in your district are watching whether you hold this administration accountable or look the other way.
