An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Blocking Votes: A Cowardly Display of Corruption—Do You Serve Trump or America?

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I am deeply concerned about the recent House vote blocking Congress from challenging President Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico. This undermines our system of checks and balances and highlights the undue influence Trump holds over his supporters in Congress, with serious economic consequences. Since March 2, 2025, consumer confidence has dropped and the stock market, which affects most Americans’ 401(k)s, has fallen faster than a SpaceX rocket. We eagerly await the March jobs report in which we may see what the true damage the Tariffs and DOGE have done. What happened to the great economy the Trump administration took credit for repeatedly? President Trump himself has not ruled out a recession since announcing the tariffs, admitting, “There will be a little disturbance, but we are OK with that.” Easily said by a millionaire. Meanwhile, he has prioritized promoting Tesla, whose vehicles remain out of reach for most Americans. The Model S starts at $81,630, quite a shift from Trump’s previous attacks on electric cars and the damage they do before Elon Musk began supporting him. These developments raise serious questions about our economic direction and congressional oversight. HAVE YOU, IN SUPPORTING THIS MEASURE, COMPROMISED THE INTEGRITY OF YOUR OFFICE TO ALIGN WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP’S AGENDA, EVEN AT THE POTENTIAL EXPENSE OF OUR ECONOMIC WELL-BEING? If you believe these policies benefit Americans, I request that you schedule a town hall to address economic concerns and the erosion of government accountability. Avoiding your constituents only deepens the distrust in your leadership.
