Dear Senator / Representative -

For the first time since 1946, US national debt now exceeds 100 percent of GDP, according to new Treasury Department data. As of March 31, the total debt was $31.265 trillion, while GDP from 2025 was $31.216 trillion, putting the ratio at 100.2 percent compared with 99.5 percent at the end of the last fiscal year. The US now spends $1.33 for every dollar it collects, and the budget deficit for this year is projected to be $1.9 trillion. The 100 percent milestone is a symbolic marker of a financial question looming over the US.

This Republican Administration pays attention to trifles—a ballroom, a royal visit, an Instagram post of sea shells—and not enough to the long term stability of the US economy and the consequences of their chosen war on Iran.

Republicans say they want to run the government like a business. When a business runs into debt, they work to generate more revenue.

Here is what I want -- enforcement of the existing tax code against the ultra-wealthy and corporations, a tightening of tax loopholes exploited by the ultra-wealthy and corporations, a removal of the Social Security Maximum Income Cap, and a raising of the capital gains tax.

Look at the top tax rate in the US from the years 1947 - 1957. This is where we should set the tax rate again.
