Letter: Federal lawmakers need to hear from you

Published 9:00 am Thursday, April 10, 2025

In these times of threats to our democracy, it requires us to protest (sign protests) and join others showing our dissatisfaction with President Donald Trump, his adviser Elon Musk and those Republicans who support this autocracy.

Many judges have told the Trump administration to stop their illegal actions, but Trump has simply continued and ignored their orders. Normally, the Congress would step in and control the situation.

How bad must it get before our Congress acts? Contact your federal legislators letting them know how worried we are about our democracy.
