Take Action to Reverse Effects of Devastating USAID Cuts in Afghanistan I am writing regarding the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan following the 2025 termination of USAID assistance programs there. The impact has been severe and documented. Refugees International’s recent research attributes at
Why is the US government wasting time and money on absolutely stupid things like renaming Lake Ontario? And why do you give so much power to a president who is so fragile that he throws a tantrum and demands to change the name of another body of water to soothe his bruised ego because a country doe
Congress Must Take Action to Protect Against Growing AI Risks AI labs are building systems of immense power with little to no meaningful oversight. There have been recent highly publicized AI security breaches that highlight the danger posed by Congress’ current stance: doing nothing, while the ri
Trump is imposing ridiculous tariffs on our friend and neighbor, Canada. Are you simply "concerned"? Or are you going to DO SOMETHING?
Ensure Fair Treatment of Visa Holders Who Seek Asylum
As a constituent, I urge you to intervene before the State Department carries out its reported plan to revoke up to 200,000 business and tourist visas because their holders later applied for asylum in the United States. The New York Times reported on August 24, 2026, that the administration is prep
The Border Wall Construction is a desecration. Stop the destruction. The Border Wall plans threaten the oldest inscriptions in North America. Please, Read this from the Guardian: Trump’s border wall construction threatens rock art as old as the pyramids: ‘The ancestors are still here’- - Ro
No changes to modifier 25
I urge you to oppose changes to the CMS around modifier 25 that would prevent patients from having multiple issues dealt with in the same visit. This would be a huge financial and time burden to patients, especially when you have to travel for doctor’s appointments as we do in Maine.
NOTHING IS BETTER. AMERICA is being dismantled, exported and sold for scrap. This is an administration of contempt for the law and decency, for human health and well-being, for the Constitution, the rule of law and the truth itself. Measles has returned. Deliberate misinformation now means more
Preserve a Vital US-Canada Partnership While Resolving Trade Disputes
As a constituent, I urge you to act to reverse the new 50 percent tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods and prevent an escalating trade war with one of America’s closest allies and largest trading partners. These tariffs can increase prices, disrupt North American supply chains, and expose U.S.
There are new leaked documents from the Epstein files available now. They are quite damning of Donald Trump, other government officials, and business leaders. Still, nothing is happening to facilitate real investigations, arrests, and trials of people (mostly white rich men) who have been accused of
Stop the Canada Trade War Before It Costs Americans More
The trade war with Canada needs to end, and you have a responsibility to push back against it. Canada is one of our closest trading partners, and these tariffs are not punishing Ottawa — they are punishing American families and businesses through higher prices and supply chain disruptions. This is
Trump's False "Reverse Surgery" Claim Proves Politicians Don't Belong in Medical Decisions
The president of the United States stood before a crowd and claimed hospitals are performing "reverse surgery" on transgender people "at his order." That statement is false. No such order exists. His executive actions have done the opposite — cutting off care, not mandating procedures. This is not a
We need ACTION
You don’t make a difference by saying you have concerns. You make a difference by growing a spine and standing up for what you know is right.
40 Trillion Dollars end to end= 3.88 billion miles
Explain how Elon Musk's DOGE cuts result in a $40 TRILLION deficit. Just asking. For reference, our deficit was 0 under Clinton. Looking at historic charts, this is a Republican trend. We are receiving less, and my government will be charging me more.
The Trump administration is about to remove the name from the USS Doris Miller, currently under construction, and rename it after - reportedly - Trump. Miller was a hero and ultimately died in action. He was also black. And now they want to replace his name with that of a draft dodger? You CANNOT le
Oppose Political Interference in Law-School Accreditation
As a constituent, I am writing to oppose the Department of Education’s effort to end federal recognition of the American Bar Association (ABA) Council as the federally recognized national accreditor for law schools. The decision is not final, and I urge you to act now to ensure that any review is ba
Please, ADDRESS THE FOOD-BORNE illness scandal. It's not just lettuce: fruit, berries, milk, bakery items and more have been contaminated with pathogens and are making people ill. It;s not just cyclosporiasis, it's now E. Coli, Salmonella, and more. This is unacceptable and its a direct result of
Vote Against the Make America Israel Bill
I am writing as a constituent to ask you to vote AGAINST adding the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative (Section 219 in the House / Section 1217 in the Senate) to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This program risks using U.S. tax dollars to fund weapons rese
Wildfires are a record levels. Treat then as the crisis that they are and take all actions possible. Please: hold hearings, investigate and use subpoenas powers to compel testimony, invite climate and forestry and fire fighters as witnesses and legislate. This year has been a record high for wildfi
PASS HR 588: Protects BWCA. Also: Save Big Bend; Keep Roadless Rule
I hope you remember the widespread OUTRAGE when Congress passed a bill with a poison addition to allow forever-polluting sulphide mining in the BWCA. This was allowing pollution for private profit to wreck pristine wilderness. Talk about socialism: that was an example of socialise the losses and pr
Protect Against Electric Blackouts That May Disrupt Essential Services for Years
America’s electric grid has a dangerous weakness: critical transformers are hard to replace, yet transformers and substations remain vulnerable to attack, including by drones. Congress should act now to reduce the risk that sabotage, cyberattack, extreme weather, solar activity, or equipment failure
It’s been 200 days since some of the Epstein Files were released from the DOJ. There have been no investigations or arrests despite testimony in the files of horrific crimes. Why? What are you doing to enforce the laws of this country? When will we see arrests? Doing nothing means you are ok wi
Raise your voice to stop the bulldozers at BIG BEND. Stop the rape & pillage
STOP THE BULLDOZERS AT BIG BEND. Work has been paused. Please, raise your voice, make it stop, and take action to preserve our national parks and oceans. You have surely seen the photos of the obscene destruction at Big Bend. I cannot express my outrage except with crude language: TRUMP is A RAPIS
Introduce STATE legislation against ICE's electric shock torture gloves
Please introduce legislation immediately to BAN THE USE OF ELECTRIC SHOCK GLOVES by ICE. These gloves are a terrifying invention and should be nowhere near the rogue agents of a rogue agency that respects neither the constitution nor the rule of law and continues to allow its agents to spread terr
Find Out What Is Happening Aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln
As your constituent, I am deeply concerned about the USS Abraham Lincoln’s extraordinarily long deployment and reports of worsening crew conditions. Congress should investigate those conditions, ensure prompt relief, and establish safeguards against excessive future deployments. AN EXTRAORDINARY DE
