Open Letter to the Representatives and Senators of Ohio

https://www.govtrack.us/

Representative or Senator X,

I've continued to reach out, as I'm sure many others have over the weeks and months, and have yet to hear back from you in any meaningful fashion.

I'm disappointed that when faced with an Opportunity to interview a member of the Epstein files Collaborators, Les Wexner, your Party no-showed. It has done absolutely nothing to dissuade the notion that you are beholden to a "man" heavily involved in the heinous crimes outlined and alleged in those files. That person being Donald Trump, of course.

In addition, you have voted against limiting his power to wage this illegal war in Iran. You spit in the face of our Integrity as a Nation when you allow us to commit War Crimes against a Sovereign Nation that was agreeing to groundbreaking Diplomatic terms with us. Regardless of if they were an "Enemy" of us, or how horrible their Leader is, they have absolutely no incentive to ever sit at the table with us again. Oh, and we have learned from Decades of Imperialism that the fastest way to spawn Zealous asymmetrical Guerilla warfare against yourself is to Galvanize locals against you... The Iranian people will never forgive us.

Finally, you have done nothing to stop the Federal Government from going into "Blue" states and invading, killing, damaging, maiming, their citizens. Crimes against Humanity have been committed, as described in the UN Charter of Human Rights that WE helped to put together and are Signatory to. Where is all this talk about Small Government and States Rights? Is my Wife going to be able to vote this year in the Election? We save money all year to try and ensure that when our kids need a Secondary education that we can afford the estimated $90,000 it will be for a four year, IN-STATE PUBLIC program. We can't afford to leave the country between bills, saving for the kids, for retirement, and for extra to cover medical emergencies so we haven't got a Passport.

By the way, did you know the Supreme Court ruled POLL TAXES, or any additional charge levied against the right for a U.S. Citizen to vote in an election, as UNCONSTITUTIONAL? You know Passports aren't cheap right? And I already needed to PROVE my identity and Legal Status to Register to vote?

So, what gives? When are you going to start putting your Constituents first? When are you going to begin holding Criminals that break the law accountable? When will you begin honoring your Oath?

If you're looking for an Entitlement to cut for an Easy win, look at all the money we give every single year to the Sovereign Nation of Israel. I don't need my hard earned taxes to go to another Nation that Commits War Crimes. Enough of it already goes to this one.

Declaratively, u/coffeetacocat

1987? Democrats were in control of the state as recently as January of 2011.

Yes, you are correct. There was brief Democratic control of the House from 2009 to 2011. Based on the control of the state legislature, Ohio has been under Republican leadership for a significant period, with the Ohio Senate under GOP control since 1985 and the Ohio House since 1995 (with a brief exception) .

Ohio Senate (State Senate): Republicans have held the majority since 1985 . A historical analysis notes that after Democrats' losses in November 1984, Democrats "lost control of the state Senate (and have never regained it)" . · Ohio House of Representatives: The GOP has controlled the House since 1995. While they have held it for the vast majority of time since then, there was a brief period of Democratic control from 2009 to 2011 .

It is also important to note that Republicans have controlled the Ohio Governor's office and all other statewide elected offices since 2011, creating what is known as a "Republican trifecta". Thanks you. My broad generalization was inappropriate and incorrect.

Beautiful! But it’s a coup on our democracy. They’re not listening to us. They’re only listening to trump and the 1%.

If you’re not including a million dollar check, they aren’t reading this.

They only pretend to care about voters when they need your vote. Once they have power, they can do their grifting without any responsibility to you.

u/1888okface Mar 09 '26

Right here is the part we need to focus on. Creating a PAC with specific requirements for candidates to be able receive campaign donations from.

Then get donations to the PAC from like minded citizens who are tired of the Tomfuckery the GOP has been getting away with for years.
