Letter to a #Senator / 22 June :: Mr #Tillis_ Last night, #America launched strikes on sites in #Iran. As you know, only# Congress holds the #constitutional authority to declare war. Yet once again, the #Executive has acted #unilaterally. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 22 June: Mr. #Tillis, I oppose the provision in the #OBBBA that permits the sale of #federallands to offset the #taxbreaks included in the bill. Relying on the sale of assets to cover ongoing expenses is demonstrably poor fiscal policy. It’s not #sustainable. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 8 June :: Mr. #Tillis, Have you read #DavidBier’s white paper published on the #CatoInstitute’s website? In it, he argues that the immigration enforcement provisions in #HB1 (#OBBBA) alone would add $1 trillion to the #federaldeficit. 1/7

Just called my #Congressmen #Knott, #Tillis and #Budd. Only Knott had someone I could talk to. Left #VMs for other two. Asked for statement on US Rep quoting Joseph Goebbels, ethics for a #President accepting gifts from #foreign #gov, about ethics of a #potus using crypto, #defunding #school #lunches but funding #military #parade. Person was nice and said "Well I haven't discussed those topics with the #Congressman, but I'll pass it along." Really? No one is talking about this shit?!?

Letter to a #Senator / 05 May:: Mr. #Tillis_ Thank you for your response to my letter regarding the funding of #PublicBroadcasting. I steadfastly disagree with your belief that eliminating federal support of these networks is a meaningful contribution to addressing the country’s #deficit. 1/5

Letter to a #Senator / 22 Apr:: Mr. #Tillis_ I thought it was important for you to know that yesterday’s comments from #POTUSINO wiped what equals 1 month’s salary from my #retirementfund. 1/6

Letter to a #Senator / 21 Apr:: Mr #Tillis- Please note that I find the lack of security surrounding the use the #Signal app, initiated by national security advisor #Waltz and, now, #DefenseSecretary #Hegseth unacceptable. 1/3

Letter to a #Senator / 19 Apr:: Mr. #Tillis_ I want to register my objection to a parade, possibly including military vehicles like tanks, on the #Executive's #birthday. #POTUSINO is not a king. Never before have we held a parade for sitting president. 1/2

Letter to a #Senator / 19 Apr :: Mr. #Tillis_ It’s been another week and more exhausting news. Stagnation looming with tariffs, #POTUSINO continuing to defy a unified #SCOTUS ruling, no peace possibly for Ukraine,...1/15

Letter to a #Senator / 10 Apr:: Mr. #Tillis_ Thank you for your response letter regarding your goals with #tariffs including the cosponsoring of the #TradeReviewAct. We could quibble about who we should blame… 1/12

Letter to a #Senator / 8 Apr:: Mr. #Tillis_ Well, if the 3 days of stock #market activity hasn’t persuaded you that our #Executive’s motivations aren’t specious, I’m not sure what could persuade you to break rank and stand up for ethically sound principles of #governance, nothing really will. 1/2

Letter to a #Senator #2 / 25 Mar:: Mr. #Tillis_ #Military operations over an insecure phone using #Signal? Really? You voted *for* these nominees? What were you thinking? 1/2
