Dear Representative Stauber,
My grandfather, Claude W. Trout (a.k.a. Poppop), served during World War II to stop the spread of authoritarianism and its accompanying death, destruction, and violence. Perhaps your grandfather did, too.
Please honor their legacy by stopping, rather than enabling, Trump's attempts at an authoritarian takeover from within.
Thank you,
Julie Gard
