An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Put down the golf clubs and get back to work!

15 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

Enough stalling. Enough photo-ops. Enough game-playing. Enough wasting the American people’s time. Get. Back. To. Work. Right now — today — while you vacation, while you golf, while you tweet nonsense instead of governing — the U.S. Government is not fully functioning. People are hungry. Moms are stretched beyond the breaking point. Kids are going to school without lunch money. Essential workers are terrified about paying next month’s rent. Medications are going up in price AGAIN while your donors get richer and richer. This is not leadership. It is reckless, arrogant neglect. The Constitution does not give you the right to abandon your posts simply because negotiations are uncomfortable. Being in public office is not about ego, golf outings, or showmanship — it is about SERVING THE PUBLIC. So here are the immediate, non-negotiable demands of the American people: 1. Open up the government NOW. Not next week. Not after another round of cable news interviews. NOW. 2. Feed hungry Americans. Fund SNAP, fund school meals, fund emergency food banks — restore the programs that actually keep families alive. 3. Keep health care prices LOW — permanently. We demand price caps, drug transparency, and NO MORE corporate hand-outs to pharmaceutical executives. 4. Put down the golf clubs, stop performing for cameras, and DO YOUR JOB. Americans cannot “pause” their bills, their hunger, their medical needs. Public servants do not get to walk away from work when it gets inconvenient. History is watching you. Every voter is watching you. The world is watching you. Get back in session. Pass real funding packages. Protect Americans instead of donors. No more stalling. No more empty promises. No more golf. Do your jobs!
