An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Prioritize Affordability Crisis Over Non-Essential Projects

53 so far! Help us get to 100 signers!

I am deeply concerned about the ongoing affordability crisis affecting millions of Americans. As your constituent, I urge you to prioritize addressing this critical issue over non-essential projects such as golf course updates or decoration initiatives. The current economic climate has left many families struggling to make ends meet. Rising costs of housing, healthcare, and basic necessities have outpaced wage growth, creating significant financial strain for a large portion of our population. This is not the time for frivolous spending on recreational facilities or cosmetic improvements. Instead, I implore you to focus your efforts and our tax dollars on meaningful solutions to combat the affordability crisis. This could include initiatives to increase affordable housing, expand access to healthcare, provide job training programs, or implement policies that help reduce the cost of living for working families. By redirecting funds and attention away from non-essential projects like golf course renovations, we can make a real difference in the lives of those who are struggling. Every dollar spent on such luxuries is a dollar that could be invested in programs that directly benefit those in need. I ask that you take immediate action to reassess spending priorities and ensure that our community's resources are being used to address the most pressing issues facing your constituents. The affordability crisis demands our full attention and resources. Let's work together to create meaningful change and provide relief to those who need it most.
