Dear [firstname],

It's now been 3 weeks since the U.S. House of Representatives had a Speaker. As Republicans continue to fight amongst themselves, Congress is unable to pass legislation to address our most urgent needs. I am extremely disappointed they continue to choose chaos and partisanship instead of working with Democrats to find a bipartisan path forward.

We need a functional Congress. Our federal government and the services we all rely on are less than one month away from running out of money. People continue to struggle with rising costs as our economy recovers from a global pandemic. We have critical international needs, like the conflicts in Israel, Gaza, and Ukraine, that we must address for the long-term security of the United States and the world.
