We the People Wednesdays Action for May 6

Last September, President Trump announced plans to build a grand ballroom in the east wing of the White House, at a cost of $200 million.  Over the next few months, the price rose to $400 million, but Trump promised it would be privately funded, involving “zero taxpayer dollars”.  This week, Senate Republicans proposed new funding of $1 billion for security enhancements for the ballroom project.  A judge has already ruled the entire ballroom project illegal without congressional approval.  Let’s tell our senators what we think of public funding for the ballroom.

Write to Senators asking them to oppose funding for Trump’s ballroom.  Use any wording you like, for example:

Dear Senator XXX,

  Hold Trump to his word:  No public funding for the White House ballroom.

Sincerely,

<your name and zip code>
