An Open Letter

To: Rep. Burchett, Sen. Hagerty, Sen. Blackburn

From: A constituent in Knoxville, TN

November 8

Dear Sir and Madams- May I suggest that if you think the shutdown will last past Thanksgiving, that you do something about it. Your constituents are unpaid. They are still working. And SNAP is still unfunded. You exist in a bubble, fed, housed, insured. Tennessee deserves better than this. I am ashamed of you all. This does not belong to Schumer. It belongs to you. To Trump. I look forward to seeing every last one of you voted out of office in 2026 and beyond.
