Stop Wasting My Tax Dollars on Nonsense During a Shutdown

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

From: A verified voter in Schaumburg, IL

November 3

I am outraged that my tax dollars are being wasted on an inappropriate and unnecessary website like www.whitehouse.gov/mysafespace, especially during a government shutdown. It is unacceptable that while essential workers face uncertainty and families struggle to afford food and health care, money is being poured into vanity projects and frivolous content. If Congress can’t keep the government fully funded, it should at least ensure that every penny spent goes toward programs that actually help Americans — like health care subsidies, SNAP benefits, and paying essential workers. Not political nonsense. Do your job. Cut the waste and fund what matters.
