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

Demand Action on Trump's Unprecedented Self-Dealing

73 so far! Let’s get to 100 signers!

You need to speak out and take concrete action against the corruption coming out of this White House. The evidence is no longer ambiguous. Trump accepted a $400 million jet from Qatar in apparent violation of the Constitution's emoluments clause. He bought up to $12.8 million in stocks the day before announcing a tariff pause that sent the S&P 500 up nearly 10%. His family took a 20% stake in a Kazakhstan tungsten deal brokered by his own Commerce Secretary, while the administration funneled $8.9 billion in taxpayer money to companies tied to the Trumps and Lutnicks. This is not politics — it's a system of self-enrichment using the powers of the presidency. Senator Chris Murphy called it "unprecedented corruption" and "a national crisis" in a Senate floor speech on June 23. He's right. Trump has pulled in approximately $2.3 billion in crypto gains since taking office, structured so his family collects fees while ordinary investors lose money. A $500 million no-bid White House construction contract was blocked by a federal judge. The penalty for filing a late stock transaction report is $200. None of this polices itself. Your constituents are watching to see whether their representatives treat this as the crisis it is or look the other way.
