An open letter to the U.S. House of Representatives

Don't take our economy hostage. RAISE THE DEBT CEILING!

403 so far! Help us get to 500 signers!

As your constituent, I vehemently oppose the MAGA plan for a US government shutdown to force President Biden to destroy essential programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans benefits, public schools, college loans, and climate jobs. Playing "Russian Roulette" with the debt ceiling is not a "negotiating tactic." Defaulting on the national debt could trigger a global Depression that would be catastrophic for the American people. * Stock markets will collapse, wiping out pension funds, 501ks, and IRAs. * Interest rates will soar, canceling investments in construction and manufacturing. * The U.S. government will be unable to pay the military, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc. * State and local governments will be unable to pay police, teachers, firefighters, hospitals, etc. Congress must immediately raise the debt ceiling to pay for all the programs Congress previously authorized by law.
