An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Immediate action needed re USAID infiltration

71 so far! Help us get to 100 signers!

I am writing to bring your urgent attention to a deeply concerning matter: the infiltration of USAID by DOGE. This unprecedented situation threatens not only the integrity of our international aid programs but also the stability of our governmental operations. The consequences of inaction could be severe, and I urge you to take immediate legislative and investigative action to address this crisis. As you are undoubtedly aware, USAID plays a critical role in advancing U.S. foreign policy objectives through humanitarian aid and development assistance. The infiltration and subsequent shutdown of USAID by DOGE—whether through cyber-related vulnerabilities, financial disruptions, or an entirely new form of interference—pose a significant national security risk. We cannot afford to let this situation escalate further. Beyond the immediate operational threats, this act constitutes treason against the United States. Any entity or force—foreign or domestic—that deliberately undermines a federal agency responsible for humanitarian and diplomatic efforts is engaging in a direct attack on the interests and security of the nation. Such actions aid foreign adversaries by weakening U.S. global influence, sabotaging aid missions, and destabilizing the systems that protect both our national security and our allies. This cannot be tolerated under any circumstances. I respectfully request that your office prioritize an investigation into this matter and take swift measures to ensure the integrity and continuity of USAID’s mission. This may include congressional hearings, cybersecurity reinforcements, and emergency policy responses to counteract DOGE’s impact. The American people, as well as those who rely on our aid efforts worldwide, deserve decisive leadership in the face of this challenge. I appreciate your time and attention to this pressing issue, and I look forward to your response outlining the steps your office will take to address this threat.
