An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Block unqualified candidates and defunding of vital programs

9 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

I am writing to express my concerns with President-elect Trump’s Cabinet nominees. Specifically Robert Kennedy Jr.,  Kash Patell and Tulsi Gabbard.  I am also calling to express my concerns about a recent freeze of funds made by President Trump.  President Trump's cabinet creates the leadership team for all Americans. These cabinet members should be competent, ethical, and trustworthy, regardless of their political positions. This is a partial list of my concerns : 1. Robert Kennedy, Jr. 18,000 physicians signed a petition to ask the Senate to block his conformation primarily related to his past history of undermining vaccine administration with unfounded or misleading arguments. His blatant refusal to acknowledge credible scientific sources is a worry for me and I believe makes him totally unsuitable.  2. Kash Patell Kash Patell is unsuited for many reasons... his skeptism of the January 6 attack on the US Capital, his ties to QAnon conspiracies and his vows to seek retribution on the "deep state" - a list of 60 names which were published in a 2023 book titled "Government Conspiracies".  3. Tulsi Gabbard I believe she is not suited for the job because of her past ties & support of Assaid in Syria, her ties to Russia and her inability to identify Edwin Snowden a traitor to our country.  I also want to share my concerns with you about Donald Trump's illegal freeze of funds that would  potentially impact a wide swath of vital programs that allow parents to work, children to thrive, people to contribute to their communities, and small businesses and our economy to run, like: HeadStart, health care, disaster relief, school meals, veterans programs, public schools, elder care, clean water infrastructure, housing assistance, meals on wheels, and federal cancer trials, and so much more.  I can not begin to imagine what havoc and inhumanity this freeze would cause in Oklahoma and to our country.  Thank you for your attention to my concerns and I implore you search your heart and your Oklahoma values and vote NO on these nominations and stand strong in your protection for the financial stability of your constituents.
