Demand Transparency and Accountability in Government

I am deeply concerned about the recent actions of the Trump administration that threaten the foundations of our democracy and the rule of law. The suppression of vital economic data, such as the consumer expenditures report and the annual household food security report, is alarming. These reports are crucial for understanding the economic realities faced by Americans and shaping effective policies. Even more troubling are the apparent attempts to silence critics and control information. The crackdown on media and political opponents under the guise of preventing political violence is a dangerous precedent. President Trump's calls for prosecution of dissenters and removal of comedians who mock him are clear violations of First Amendment rights. The military actions taken without proper legal scrutiny, such as the strike on a Venezuelan boat resulting in three deaths, are deeply concerning. The subsequent purge of judge advocate generals from the military by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth further erodes the checks and balances within our armed forces. The administration's immigration policies, including the new $100,000 fee for companies employing H-1B visa holders, will likely harm our economy and innovation. The firing of the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia for declining to prosecute perceived enemies of the President is a blatant abuse of power. I urge you to take immediate action to restore transparency and accountability in our government. We need congressional oversight to investigate these abuses of power and to protect the integrity of our democratic institutions. Please support legislation that safeguards the independence of government agencies, protects whistleblowers, and ensures the free flow of information to the public. The stability of our nation and the principles of democracy are at stake. I implore you to stand up against these authoritarian tendencies and work tirelessly to uphold the Constitution and the rule of law. Our future as a free and open society depends on your courage and commitment to these fundamental American values.
