An Open Letter

To: Rep. Williams, Sen. Cornyn, Sen. Cruz

From: A verified voter in Arlington, TX

December 1

Impeach Trump/demand the release of his MRI results. There is no doubt that he is no longer fit to serve and is actively endangering the safety of our country and citizens. Make him prove otherwise- release the MRI results. We have the right to know. Arguments for Disclosure 1. Fitness to Serve: The presidency is an incredibly stressful job, and voters need assurance that a candidate has the physical and mental stamina to handle the complex issues and responsibilities. A candidate's health is directly relevant to their capacity to govern effectively for a full term. 2. Avoiding Secrecy and Deception: History is replete with examples of presidents and candidates (e.g., Woodrow Wilson, JFK, FDR) whose serious health conditions were hidden from the public. Such secrecy can lead to a crisis of public trust and raise questions about who is truly making decisions in the White House. 3. Informed Consent: The public's consent to be governed is meaningful only when voters have access to information necessary for making informed voting decisions. 4. Preventing Speculation: Releasing full, objective health information can pre-empt rumors and speculation that can distract from the campaign's substantive issues. By being transparent, candidates can control the narrative rather than letting opponents or the media define their health status. 5. Setting a Standard: Establishing a norm of transparency could lead to a more consistent and independent analysis of all candidates' health, rather than leaving it to individual discretion and political maneuvering.
