Pennsylvania Open Letters

From a verified voter in Philadelphia, PA

You’re seriously considering voting for RFK Jr? What the hell is wrong with you? The guy’s insane ideas are responsible for numerous deaths. I wouldn’t trust him to watch my grocery cart and you’re considering voting for his nomination? Absolutely not.

Raise the minimum wage

I saw an article on NPR this morning reporting on how 19 states’ and DC’s minimum wages were going up, many north of $15/hour - hooray! I eagerly scrolled down to look for how much PA had voted to increase and… we were not on the list. Our minimum wage remains a shameful $7.25/hour (and a truly jaw-

As we mourn the passing of President Jimmy Carter, I urge Congress to honor his legacy by addressing the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza. President Carter was a staunch advocate for human rights and an apartheid-free Palestine, a vision that demands our attention now more than ever. The situa

Gaza Death Toll Likely 300,000: A World’s Moral Failing

The death toll in Gaza has now surpassed 300,000—a staggering figure that reflects not just lives lost but the world’s collective failure. How have we allowed this to happen? Have we sent weapons to the wrong hands? Have our policies and tax dollars fueled this unimaginable suffering? I urge you

Presidential appointment nominees

I hope you have had "time to get Christmas presents for the kids". Merry Christmas! Once you're back to work, I expect (and will be repeatedly demanding) that you get the new administration's nominees to state UNDER OATH what they tell you in private, off-the-record conversations in order to convinc

I did not vote for Elon Musk to control Donald Trump

The continued attempts by Elon Musk, an unelected billionaire, to influence and dictate legislative processes are deeply concerning and undermine democratic principles. While individuals have the right to voice their opinions, Musk's actions go far beyond that by actively threatening elected represe

I'm very concerned about the lack of experience and basic qualifications of many of the people that President-Elect Trump is putting forwardfor cabinet positions and other government appointments like ambassadorships. Elon Musk for example has no business in politics and is very much not acting in t

Denying Rights, Defending Oppression, and Deposing Justice for Americans

The No Kings Act reasserts Congress's constitutional authority over the applicability of federal criminal laws, including to presidents and vice presidents. This legislation clarifies that no president or vice president is entitled to immunity from prosecution unless explicitly granted by Congress.

From a verified voter in West Chester, PA

Just say NO. Get used to saying NO. Unless it’s absolutely necessary to say yes, vote NO. The new Problem Solver’s Cactus says No to everything that isn’t absolutely essential to functioning. What Donald Trump and Elon Musk want is good for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. They want to enrich themselve

Protect Trans Health

As a constituent, I am appalled that you voted for the NDAA including the draconian measure to strip trans youth of gender affirming care under TRICARE.
