Was published in this morning's Wichita Eagle. I wrote,

Kansas senators and representatives, thank you so very much for helping pass the new tax bill that has been making its way through congress. I so appreciate your assenting vote because it finally displays your true stripes for all of Kansas to see clearly. You really are interested only in yourself, wealthy corporations, and fat cat donors. The majority of Kansans whom you purportedly represent? You could care less about their welfare.
Your vote for this bill proves conclusively that you are not in the least bit interested in looking out for the well-being of the good hard-working citizens of Kansas. Since your obvious concerns are only for the rich and powerful and not the majority of Kansas’ population, you have no business representing this state in any capacity. As someone who never misses an election, I will not only never vote for you for any office, but will openly campaign against you and encourage everyone to vote against you. You do not really care about us or the well-being of this state—you do not deserve our support.

I mailed the same letter to my personal representatives, but doubt that they could care less. Hopefully, local voters will care.
