An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Reassert congressional power over spending to preserve checks and balances.

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

Congress must forcefully reassert its constitutional authority as a coequal branch to prevent relinquishing its power of the purse and democratic accountability to an authoritarian executive. Failure to take resolute action against unilateral executive appropriations overrides will erode the system of checks and balances, enabling a dangerous consolidation of power antithetical to republican governance. Decisive legislative reassertion of spending prerogatives is imperative to prevent ceding budgetary control to a domineering regime indifferent to constitutional constraints. If congress doesn't stop this executive power grab, congress will cease to exist.
