Hi John,

‌

$35,945,396,362,475.20.

‌

Taxpayers like you are now carrying the weight of this staggering national debt, recent U.S. Treasury data shows.

‌

We have reckless government spending to thank for this eye-popping number, but it doesn’t have to be this way. With new leadership in Washington in 2025, we have a chance to finally put our country on a path to balancing the budget.

‌

Our grassroots movement must keep pushing Washington for fiscal reform, driven by activists like you advocating for sound policies centered on these core principles:

1. Reducing wasteful spending: We seek to minimize reckless spending in Washington to foster a more self-reliant and empowered society.
2. Responsible budgeting: We call for Congress to adopt responsible budgeting practices that fix the debt.
3. Curbing inflation: We urge Congress to take decisive measures to lower costs for American families.

Grassroots activism is most powerful when citizens like you speak up to demand meaningful, lasting fiscal responsibility from lawmakers. But doing so means staying informed about sound economic policy.

‌

Back in January, I shared key steps to tackle our national debt (then at $34 trillion). Learn how bold budget reform can reignite our economy and create real opportunities for families like yours.

Thank you for standing with us to create a fiscally responsible future.

‌

Best regards,
