I am writing to you as a deeply concerned constituent to urge you to stand firmly against the recent use of taxpayer dollars to pay for propaganda banners featuring the President that have been placed on federal buildings. This practice is not only unnecessary and wasteful—it is unlawful, un-American, and authoritarian in nature.
Reports confirm that federal agencies have spent hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars on these massive banners. These are not informational signs about programs or services; they are giant images of a political leader, more reminiscent of dictatorships than a democracy. Using public funds in this way is a violation of both federal prohibitions on propaganda spending and the spirit of the Constitution’s requirement that taxpayer money be spent only as appropriated by Congress.
At a time when families and communities need resources for real services, this kind of wasteful spending is offensive and damaging. Beyond the cost, it signals a dangerous embrace of authoritarian tactics, where oversized leader images replace genuine communication and accountability. Such actions erode the principles of democracy, government transparency, and the trust of the American people.
I am calling on you to speak out, take action, and hold the administration accountable for this misuse of taxpayer funds. Congress must ensure that this propaganda is removed, that future abuses are prevented, and that taxpayer dollars are directed toward programs and services that truly benefit the American people.
Democracy does not vanish in one dramatic moment—it is chipped away piece by piece when unlawful acts like these are ignored. I urge you to take this seriously and stand against this authoritarian display.
Thank you for your attention and for your commitment to defending our democracy.
