An Open Letter
To: Rep. Balderson
From: A constituent in Reynoldsburg, OH
May 9
When the American people woke up this morning, they could reasonably ask the question, ‘What are their elected representatives on the floor of the House of Representatives going to be debating?’ In an environment where the Trump tariffs are costing them thousands of dollars more per year, Republicans are crashing the economy in real time, costs are being raised on hardworking American taxpayers and Republicans are driving us toward a painful recession. What might members of Congress under this temporary Republican majority be debating on the floor today? Would it be legislation about the economy? Something about health care? Anything about Social Security? Perhaps something on public safety? Maybe national security matters? Anything to bring to life the American dream for hardworking American taxpayers?
No? What Republicans have decided to spend this entire legislative day doing is to debate a bill to rename the Gulf of Mexico.
It's very silly and YOU helped pass the bill, which makes you part of the problem.
