An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Endorsing unqualified leadership while jeopardizing taxpayers

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I am writing to express my deep concern over the Trump administration’s recent decisions, particularly the dismantling of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives while simultaneously appointing unqualified individuals based solely on loyalty or political donations. Eliminating DEI programs under the guise of meritocracy while filling key positions with underqualified loyalists contradicts any claim of prioritizing excellence. This is not only hypocritical but also damaging to our country’s global reputation, as we watch these individuals fumble on the world stage. Furthermore, I am alarmed by the misuse of the justice system to target those who disagree with Trump. Instead of upholding democratic values, these actions undermine the integrity of our institutions and give off an undeniable authoritarian tone. Yet, you continue to approve and applaud these decisions. Companies are required to protect customer data, yet you are entrusting sensitive information to a tech group masquerading as auditors—an entity riddled with errors that create severe liabilities for the U.S. Instead of holding them accountable, you are endorsing their actions, ignoring the risks to national security and individual privacy. The new budget does not save taxpayers money. Instead, it raises the debt ceiling while redirecting resources to benefit the wealthy at the expense of working Americans. This is not fiscal responsibility; it is economic favoritism. Your name will go down in history not as a defender of our republic but as a participant in its erosion. This is a political witch hunt, using Trump and Musk’s influence to intimidate and control. We voted for you to represent our interests. It is time to stop this insanity and uphold the principles of our democracy.
