Michigan Open Letters

From a verified voter in Jackson, MI

Demand Chuck Schumer step down as Senate Minority Leader. Senator Schumer has failed to step up as a leader we desperately need in these times of crisis. He has consistently failed the American people and chosen to represent the interests of Wall Street and Israel.

NO on Joint Resolution 140

Oppose Joint Resolution 140. Protect the Boundary Waters! This area is America’s most visited wilderness and a place I value. I want to see it, and all of our public lands in the headwaters, adequately protected from toxic copper mining. Please do NOT vote for this Resolution.

Oppose FISA Section 702 Reauthorization Without Significant Reform

I am writing to demand that you vote NO on any clean reauthorization of FISA Section 702 before the April 20, 2026 deadline. Section 702 was designed to target foreign intelligence, yet it has been consistently abused to conduct warrantless, "backdoor" searches on Americans—including peaceful protes

Support Suspect Class Designation for Transgender People

I'm calling on you to support designating transgender people as a suspect class under equal protection law. This legal standard is the right approach and deserves your vocal backing. The reasoning is straightforward. When cisgender people can update identity documents to match their gender identity

Senate Democratic Leadership Must Change

I am writing as a concerned constituent to urge you and your colleagues to advocate for new Senate Democratic leadership. Senator Chuck Schumer has served in the Senate for decades, and while his tenure has included meaningful accomplishments, I believe the Democratic Party is at a critical inflecti

Oppose the Operating System Age Verification Bill

I'm asking you to oppose the operating system age verification bill introduced by Representatives Gottheimer and Stefanik on April 13th and currently in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. This legislation is a Trojan horse for mass surveillance. Requiring Apple, Google, and other OS provid

Oppose Michigan's Kratom Ban and Support Regulation Instead

I'm asking you to oppose Michigan's kratom ban and instead support a regulatory framework like the ones adopted by thirty other states. Prohibition is a failed strategy that ignores the reality of drug use and pushes consumers toward unregulated, potentially dangerous alternatives. The Michigan Hou

Block Executive Order Requiring Citizenship Proof for Bank Accounts

I need you to introduce legislation blocking the pending Executive Order requiring proof of citizenship for bank account holders. This isn't immigration enforcement. It's a financial control mechanism that will lock millions of Americans out of banking. The EO will require passports as primary proo

Veto voter suppression bill

Please, please, please veto the Senate's voter suppression bill. Requiring proof of U.S. citizenship is unnecessary and onerous. The citizens of Michigan want free and fair elections.

Reverse the Transgender Military Ban and Restore Qualified Service Members

The transgender military ban is forcing out qualified, decorated service members for no legitimate reason. You need to take action to reverse this discriminatory policy immediately. Major Erica Vandal, a 14-year Army veteran with a Bronze Star who deployed to Afghanistan, was separated from the Arm

Stop hurting children

It is concerning and downright shocking the amount of trauma and suffering this administration is causing to children. Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are caused by multiple things. Some can be change or improved on and some cannot. According to the CDC and Cleveland Clinic these ACEs increas

Restore Integrity to the People’s House: Remove Mills & Cherfilus-McCormick The integrity of the House of Representatives is foundational, yet Florida is currently represented by two individuals who have profoundly betrayed the public trust. It is time for an immediate accountability push regarding

Save the Boundary Waters

The House passed H.J. Res. 140 a resolution that would wipe out the 20-year mining ban protecting the Boundary Waters watershed in Minnesota. 225,000 acres of Superior National Forest. 1,100 lakes. The most visited wilderness in the country. Vote No on 140!

Protect Trans Rights, Not Pedophiles

I need you to oppose any federal legislation that restricts the rights of transgender people and instead focus on ending child marriage in America. Republicans claim they're protecting children while blocking federal efforts to ban child marriage nationwide. This isn't about safety. It's a distract

Stop H.R. 8250 – Protect Our Digital Privacy

H.R. 8250 seeks to mandate that operating system providers (Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc.) verify the age of every user. This bill is a direct assault on the fundamental right to privacy. By requiring a "digital ID" just to use a smartphone or computer, the government is forcing citizens to surrend

From a constituent in Lansing, MI

Vote NO on JR 40; protect the Boundary Waters

I urge you to protect the Boundary Waters and vote no on Joint Resolution 140. Using the Congressional Review Act to strip protections for the Boundary Waters watershed creates a dangerous precedent for public lands across the country. The Boundary Waters is an economic engine for Minnesota. The $1.

Impeach & Remove Pete Hegseth The introduction of five articles of impeachment by House Democrats highlights a pattern of reckless behavior that has directly endangered our service members and compromised national security. The allegations against Secretary Hegseth are grave. Most critically, he ha

Speak Out Against HHS Regulations Based on Flawed Science

Speak out against the falsehoods these HHS regulations are based on. The rules that would ban federal insurance coverage for gender-affirming care rest on a flawed report written in just eight weeks by nine authors who all opposed this care before they even began their work, none of whom were transg

YES for PEACE ACT to Defend U.S. Constitution

Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) introduced the Prohibiting Expenditures for an Accountability-Circumventing Entity (PEACE ACT) to prohibit federal funding for the Board of Peace—an unaccountable international organization with President Trump as chairman. The Trump administration designated the Board of

Oppose Bathroom Bans That Criminalize Transgender People

I'm calling on you to publicly oppose bathroom bans that criminalize transgender people for using bathrooms that match their gender identity.

Stand Up for Pride Month and LGBTQ+ Families

I need you to publicly defend Pride Month and oppose any efforts to erase LGBTQ+ families through discriminatory resolutions like Tennessee's House Joint Resolution 182.

Oppose Stephen Miller and Donald Trump's Mass Surveillance Agenda by Voting Against a Clean Extension of FISA Section 702

Vote against any clean extension of FISA Section 702. The backdoor search loophole has turned foreign surveillance authority into a domestic spying tool, and this administration will abuse it. The FBI conducted over 57,000 backdoor searches of Americans' communications in 2023 alone, searching thro

Please vote against HR 7661 which imposes restrictions on the independence of local and state education policies for reading lists. This is censorship.
