I am writing to urge you to file a motion to vacate Speaker Mike Johnson immediately. His leadership has failed to represent the priorities and values of your constituents, and continued inaction will only deepen the damage to our communities.
Speaker Johnson has presided over policies that directly harm working families. Under his leadership, Congress has advanced cuts to critical programs like food stamps and Medicaid while simultaneously funding military operations without clear strategy or accountability. These are not abstract policy debates. These are decisions that determine whether families can afford groceries and healthcare while service members are put in harm's way without explanation or plan.
The Speaker's approach to governance prioritizes political maneuvering over constituent welfare. When leadership fails to provide transparency about military engagements that cost American lives, or when it cuts nutrition assistance programs that millions of families depend on, that leadership has lost its legitimacy. Your constituents deserve representatives who will hold leadership accountable when it abandons its responsibility to the American people.
A motion to vacate is the appropriate constitutional remedy when a Speaker no longer serves the interests of the House or the nation. This is not about partisan politics. This is about demanding leadership that operates with integrity, transparency, and genuine concern for the people it serves.
I am asking you to take immediate action by filing or supporting a motion to vacate Speaker Johnson. Your constituents are watching to see whether you will stand with them or with a leadership structure that has repeatedly demonstrated its willingness to sacrifice their wellbeing. The time for decisive action is now, not after more damage is done to the programs and principles that protect American families.
