Who will you hold responsible when the next fire season comes and there are not firefighters hired to protect your town and property?

Who will you hold responsible when you have to tell your child they can’t go to trade school or university because our country doesn’t offer scholarships, loans or grants?

Who will you hold responsible when 15 passenger jet collisions occur in a single year because we don’t have enough air traffic controllers?

Who will you hold responsible when you drive to Yellowstone, Glacier, Yosemite, Arcadia or any our national parks and you find them closed due to lack of staff?

Who will you hold responsible when 1,000,000 or our fellow citizens die in the next pandemic because we don’t have enough scientists working to create vaccines?

How will you comfort your daughter when she tells you there are no jobs in her field of study for women? Who will you hold responsible?

I will hold Donald J. Trump and Elon Musk responsible, and you should too.
