An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Oppose Any Bill That Threatens to Revoke U.S. Passports of Law-Abiding Citizens

16 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am writing to you in the strongest possible terms to oppose the outrageous proposal that would allow the U.S. government to revoke the passports of law-abiding American citizens. This is not just bad policy—it is a direct assault on the freedoms and rights guaranteed to every U.S. citizen. The passport is not a privilege handed out at the whim of politicians—it is a fundamental recognition of our citizenship, our mobility, and our liberty. To suggest that it could be revoked from citizens who have committed no crime is authoritarian overreach, plain and simple. This type of proposal belongs in dictatorships, not in the United States of America. I urge you to speak out publicly and unequivocally against this dangerous bill. Do not allow vague, overreaching language to strip citizens of their rights. Do not allow fearmongering or political gamesmanship to chip away at our constitutional freedoms. Congress must protect the rights of the people, not enable government power to encroach on them. If this proposal advances, it will set a chilling precedent that could be abused against political opponents, whistleblowers, journalists, and ordinary Americans. That is unacceptable. I demand that you oppose this bill in every form, speak out against it immediately, and defend the constitutional rights of the people you represent.
