My husband and I look forward to traveling the country again this year, after vaccinations and the return of tourist sites and attractions.

We had planned to visit many areas within our home state of Pennsylvania initially as we believe there are wonderful places to see and much to learn about the Keystone state.

Unfortunately, due to the actions of your elected U.S. Representative, Mr. Dan Meuser, we have determined we will adjust our plans and avoid spending money in areas that support officials such as Mr. Meuser. We have already contacted his largest corporate donor (Pride Mobility Products) and requested their assistance in holding Mr. Meuser accountable.

Although all Americans have the right to vote for the elected official they believe best represents their interests, Mr. Meuser chose to disregard our votes. As residents of Pennsylvania, we were disheartened to see him attempt to invalidate our choice and our votes for President Biden and Vice President Harris.

We do not have any leverage over Mr. Meuser, but the residents of Pennsylvania counties served by him have much power. If they chose to tell Mr. Meuser that his actions were unacceptable, we believe he would at minimum apologize for his actions, and at best resign from the U.S. House of Representatives.

We recognize not all your readers voted for Mr. Meuser, but only the people of your area can rectify this stain on our democracy. We hope they take the necessary steps to hold him accountable.

We would add that many may not agree with our choices for public policies, such as support for state and local government, a vigorous approach to climate change, a reckoning of our racial distrust, etc.

But several Republicans, such as Sen. Romney, disagree with President Biden’s policies yet had the courage to tell the truth.

The election was free, fair and more people voted for President Biden than the other candidate.
