Responses from DC


 

Notice any similarities between the following two letters that were received by two of our members?  Senators Wicker does not reply to our concerns he just sends out form letters.  Wicker needs to “get a life”…his words not mine.

There is a response to these wasteful letters below the form letters.

Dear (M),

Thank you for contacting me regarding funding for Fiscal Year 2026.  I am glad to have the benefit of your views on this issue.

Annual appropriation bills allow the legislative branch to allocate federal dollars among departments and agencies—an important constitutional responsibility.  These funding bills matter to American lives and communities and should be handled with diligence and care.  I believe we should fund the government.  I have voted several times for the House of Representatives-passed continuing resolution, which would immediately reopen the government and extend funding through November 21, 2025.  The continuing resolution would have allowed the government to function while the Senate finishes the appropriations process in a bipartisan way.  Instead, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is holding the appropriations process hostage.

          Be assured I will keep your views in mind as Congress considers legislation related to federal funding.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can ever be of assistance.

          With best wishes, I am

Sincerely yours,
Roger

Letter by BT (Form Letters)

Dear Senator Wicker:

For years I have written to you and asked you to not send form letters to me when I voice a concern to your office.

And now we have some proof.  You see, we are organized and we can compare responses from our various elected officials.

Why are you sending form letters when constituents voice their concerns? 

And stop with the Schumer blame game. Would you sign a bill you haven’t participated in creating? 

The Republican Party is no more.  It is the MAGA Party and you are supporting a convicted felon. 

Sincerely,

Perhaps letter writing is not your “thing”.  What do you think about mailing 3 postcards per month…one each to your Senators and one to your personal Representative? Signs of Justice has a project to send 12,000,000 postcards to Congress.  There’s that 12,000,000* number again. (*This number was taken from a Harvard study that found we need to activate 3.5% of the population to affect non-violent change). The Signs of Justice campaign is called the Majority Project.  They are asking participants to address and mail the 3 postcards mentioned above on the first day of the month and to repeat this activity every month.  They have created a postcard for this purpose: Visit the Signs of Justice website for more information and/or to order or download your postcards.  https://www.signs of justice.com/ Please let me know if you are going to participate in this postcard campaign. We would like to track the number of cards sent from Indivisible DeSoto MS.

This is a letter we received to protest the outrageous school choice legislation.  Please take the time to send your letter to Speaker Jason White and please let me know you’ve taken action.  jwhite@house.ms.gov August 25, 2025   Jason White, Speaker Mississippi House of Representatives 400 High Street Jackson, MS 39201 VIA HAND DELIVERY   Dear  Speaker  White:   I write to express my disapproval  of any legislation that would  use Mississippi taxpayer dollars to fund private schools.   Among my concerns about any  prospective  “school choice” bill are the following:   ▪  Transferring taxpayer dollars from public to private schools will only reverse the educational gains reflected in the “Mississippi Miracle . ”   To argue that “school choice” would improve upon these  remarkable outcomes seems counterintuitive at best, and disingenuous at worst  ( see  https://www.ncpecoalition.org/vouc...

Letter #1:  Impeachment/Removal of the President  By KJ & BT The U.S. Constitution, in Article VI, mandates that all federal officials be bound by oath or affirmation to support our Constitution. The core of the oath of office is a pledge to support and defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.  Donald Trump needs to be removed from office either by Impeachment or the 25th Amendment. Clearly, Trump is not mentally capable of performing the duties of the President of the United States.   There is never a wrong time to do the right thing.  The time is now. Sincerely, Letter # 2:  28th Amendment By BT The Equal Rights Amendment has been ratified by 38 states.  However, the Archivist of the United States has not published the ERA Amendment as part of the Constitution due to concerns about the extended and expired deadlines.  Please convince the Archivist to publish the 28th Amendment.   If someone ob...
