Defund and Restructure America250 to Restore Its Nonpartisan Mission

To: Sen. Husted, Sen. Moreno, Rep. Joyce

From: A constituent in Willoughby, OH

June 25

The America250 commemoration has been hijacked, and you need to act now to stop it. What was chartered as a nonpartisan celebration of our nation's 250th birthday has been turned into a political vehicle that promotes one party, elevates one man, and — by credible accounts — is generating personal financial benefit for him in the process. That is a betrayal of every American this anniversary is supposed to honor. Congress must investigate how America250 funds are being spent, who is profiting, and how a nonpartisan federal commission became a campaign backdrop. If the leadership cannot be replaced and the mission restored, funding should be pulled entirely. The 250th anniversary of this country belongs to all of us — not to any politician, party, or brand. I expect you to demand accountability and make that happen before July 4, 2026 turns into a taxpayer-funded rally.
