Demand Action on Trump's Unprecedented Self-Dealing

To: Pres. Trump, Sen. Murray, Sen. Cantwell, Rep. DelBene

From: A verified voter in Bothell, WA

July 2

You need to speak out and take concrete action against the corruption coming out of this White House. The evidence is no longer ambiguous. Trump accepted a $400 million jet from Qatar in apparent violation of the Constitution's emoluments clause. He bought up to $12.8 million in stocks the day before announcing a tariff pause that sent the S&P 500 up nearly 10%. His family took a 20% stake in a Kazakhstan tungsten deal brokered by his own Commerce Secretary, while the administration funneled $8.9 billion in taxpayer money to companies tied to the Trumps and Lutnicks. This is not politics — it's a system of self-enrichment using the powers of the presidency. Senator Chris Murphy called it "unprecedented corruption" and "a national crisis" in a Senate floor speech on June 23. He's right. Trump has pulled in approximately $2.3 billion in crypto gains since taking office, structured so his family collects fees while ordinary investors lose money. A $500 million no-bid White House construction contract was blocked by a federal judge. The penalty for filing a late stock transaction report is $200. None of this polices itself. Your constituents are watching to see whether their representatives treat this as the crisis it is or look the other way.
