An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Call for Democratic Opposition Press Secretary & Daily Briefings

30 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

The Democratic Party must take stronger action to ensure its message is heard. With the current administration controlling the national conversation through misinformation—both from its press secretary and even altered public government websites—it’s clear that we need a dedicated Democratic opposition press secretary. This role should hold daily press conferences on Capitol Hill, making clear the opposition party’s stance, countering falsehoods, and ensuring the public has access to the truth. This is not just about responding to Trump’s press machine—it’s about making sure the millions of Americans who voted for the Democratic ticket are represented and heard. Vice President Harris lost by a slim margin, yet opposition voices are being drowned out by a White House that distorts reality. A Democratic press secretary would provide an ongoing, authoritative response to misinformation, ensuring the media and public hear our side of the story. Transparency, democracy, and accountability depend on action. I urge you to support this effort and help establish a press presence that speaks for the opposition—loudly, clearly, and consistently.
