John,

The Pentagon announced that it officially accepted a luxury jet from Qatar, which President Trump will use as the new Air Force One. [1]

This influence peddling endangers our national security and could violate the Constitution’s ban on accepting gifts from foreign powers without Congress’ approval.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: This is blatant corruption, and Congress must act now. Our elected leaders need to do all in their power to put a stop to this gift — whether it be calling for an oversight hearing, or passing a joint resolution to block the gift entirely. [2]

Tell Congress that American democracy isn’t for sale and that we demand they stop this corruption!

Our voices can make a difference,
The Issue One Team
