Meeting With the VP Today

To: Gov. Braun

From: A constituent in New Albany, IN

August 7, 2025

I am writing to you about your planned meeting with the vice president today. The fact that you’re entertaining this meeting to discuss obvious gerrymandering says a lot about your character. Only cowards and losers would be open to cheating because they cannot win on their own merit. If what the president and this current congress was doing was as great as the Republican Party says it is, changing the maps wouldn’t be necessary—you should be able to win by the “winning” that the country is experiencing. But we cannot be gaslit into believing that things are better under this administration or under your leadership. Prices across the board are higher (gas, groceries, necessary household items, etc.). Companies are negatively impacted by tariffs and cuts to healthcare including possible closures of rural hospitals in our state. You signed for additional tolls to be put into place. You took away our tax dollars from public schools to fund private schools mainly benefiting rich families. My local government is raising taxes to make up for the property tax law you passed. Wheel taxes are being considered. It’s funny that republicans talk about less taxes but are okay with more taxes in other ways that disproportionately impact lower income families. This doesn’t touch on people getting kidnapped off the streets by masked and plain clothes people for being brown. And you just bragged about getting a new concentration camp built in this state. How gross. This is what voters will remember. Good will win out and history will not be kind to your actions cuz God don’t like ugly. I believe you’ll bow to the president’s wishes because you’re a yes man to him but I truly hope you prove me wrong. But I’m not holding my breath.
