Stop the Shutdown Lies and Restore Lawful Governance

3,382 so far! Let’s get to 5,000 signers!

This shutdown has gone beyond political dysfunction — it’s now a full-blown abuse of power. Federal agencies are using taxpayer-funded email systems and websites to push partisan propaganda blaming Democrats for the closure. Employees’ out-of-office replies were even altered without their consent to include these messages, written in the first person, making it appear as if individual civil servants themselves were attacking political opponents. A federal workers’ union has now filed suit, arguing that this forced speech violates the First Amendment. The Office of Special Counsel has been asked to investigate potential Hatch Act violations. Meanwhile, families are running out of food benefits under WIC, the National Nuclear Security Administration warns it could exhaust funds within days, and major infrastructure projects have been frozen as political leverage. This isn’t governing — it’s propaganda in the middle of a crisis. When citizens seek essential information, they should not be greeted by partisan slogans or false blame. Americans of every political view deserve a government that serves them, not one that uses their tax dollars to broadcast political talking points. You have both the authority and the obligation to stop this. Hold hearings. Subpoena agency leaders. Demand accountability for the hijacking of official communications and the reckless harm being done to millions of Americans. Congress must restore lawful governance — before public trust is destroyed entirely.
