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

Stop Wasting Taxpayer Money on Trump Vanity Projects

207 so far! Let’s get to 250 signers!

Demand an immediate halt to the administration's vanity spending spree. We're talking $850,000 to paint the bottom of the Reflecting Pool blue, $5 million to gild horse statues, a 250-foot triumphal arch, and now Treasury officials pressuring the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to put a living president's face on a $250 bill — the first time that would happen in over 150 years. This isn't a celebration of America's 250th anniversary. It's a monument to one man's ego, billed to the public. These aren't rounding errors. They're choices. While working families are getting squeezed by gas prices, this administration is spending millions on gold paint and a currency note that would require changing federal law to even be legal. Use your position to block funding for these projects and push the House Financial Services Committee to kill Rep. Joe Wilson's $250 bill. Constituents are watching, and they're furious.
