An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Reject Trump birthday holiday, focus on real issues

1,088 so far! Help us get to 2,000 signers!

The proposed HR1395 to designate "Trump's Birthday and Flag Day" as a federal holiday is misguided and inappropriate. Resources would be better directed towards addressing pressing issues like climate change, economic inequality, or voting rights rather than indulging the ego of one individual. I urge you to reject this resolution and instead focus efforts on substantive policies that improve the lives of all Americans. Partisan gamesmanship and personality cults have no place in determining national holidays that should bring people together, not drive them apart. This proposal is an unwise use of congressional time and authority.
