Readers respond: Congress has a job to do

The Revolutionary War seems to be far from ended, even after almost 250 years. Clearly, an autocratic king is not opposing us this time. Instead, an authoritarian oligarch, his rich backers, and a network of followers—many of whom have been readily duped by false information—threaten to overthrow us.

Whether the current presidential election is a lost struggle for a republic run by citizens or if a few patriotic Republicans’ opposition saved the republic is still up in the air. The Senate’s readiness to carry out its constitutional advice-and-consent duties regarding the appointment of the president will be the first test. The challenge for members of Congress is to show the guts to address budget deficits with reasonable cuts and fair taxation.

The spirits of those who have battled for freedom over the years, along with millions of Americans, will be eagerly awaiting what Congress does.
