From a verified voter in Erieville, NY

President Donald Trump’s language, treatment of reporters and government officials and narcolepsy indicate that he is not in control of the cognitive abilities necessary to be the leader of our country. Whether the root cause is aging or psychiatric instability, he should step down voluntarily. He

War Crimes

Hegseth and the Trump regime must be held accountable for their brutal murders and war crimes committed in Venezuela. The strikes on fishermen and boats to themselves I feel are unwarranted and murder, but without doubt, not providing quarter to the defenseless people clinging to the side of a da

We need a Leadership change

We need a leadership change. Our current Democratic Party leadership are out of touch and not equipped to deal with the current madness. Representative Veláquez, it would be amazing since you aren’t running for reelection to take a bold stance on you way out. Chuck, you should do the right thing

From a constituent in Elbridge, NY

I see that 86 Democrats joined Republicans in a resolution condemning "socialism in all its forms" and "opposing implementation of any socialist policies in the United States". You cannot comprehend how wrong this is. Remember: "Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they

I ask you to sign on to Rep. Fitzpatrick’s discharge petition that would force sanctions on Russia. Trump’s so-called peace plan, which rewards Russia with new territory, is unacceptable. Will you sign the discharge petition? Thanks. I also understand that House Democrats have unveiled a bill that

You must not let Trump give victory in Ukraine to Russia!

You must not let Trump give victory in Ukraine to Russia! Call Zelenskyy, tell him you’ll have his back in 1 more year. Call European leaders and make a plan. The world will be so much worse with an empowered Russia.

Your vote regarding socialism

I am writing to you today to express my outrage and disgust that you and other Democrats would condemn socialism. I challenge you to even define socialism. It isn't communism.

Don’t let Trump force Ukraine to accept a terrible Russian deal.

Please don’t let Trump force Ukraine to accept a peace deal on Russia’s terms. Trump’s deal is essentially a capitulation. The world cannot afford to let Putin be rewarded for this aggression. I know you understand how important this is. Please react loudly!

Trump threatens murder - needs to go

How can you give Trump a pass for his calls for violence. He is calling for the execution of political opponents for speaking the truth. He should be impeached, convicted and removed from office. He is demented, and unfit for office. He needs to go. NOW

Impeach Trump Now

Today, Trump called for the death of democratic leaders when the lawmakers reminded our armed forces to obey the law and to disobey any illegal orders that come from the current Commander in Chief—this is the kind of rhetoric that caused January 6.

Don't Start Another Iraq in Venezuela

We, the undersigned American voters, urgently call on Congress to use its constitutional power to prevent a catastrophic and unauthorized war in Venezuela.
