Dear Friend,

President Trump recently announced that he intends to accept a gift from the Royal Family of Qatar: a luxury Boeing 747 airliner described as "A Palace in the Sky." This will be used as the new Air Force One during his presidency, then transferred to Trump's Presidential Library where it will be available for his personal use after he leaves office.

Article I, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution prohibits the president from accepting gifts from foreign governments or monarchs without the explicit consent of Congress. This is to prevent bribes or corrupt conflicts of interest—as could arise, for example, from the Trump family's billion-dollar business dealings with Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and other Gulf countries.

According to the Constitution, Congress should soon be voting on this. I want to hear your thoughts:

Taking this survey will sign you up for future news and updates from my office.

Sincerely,

Bill Foster
Member of Congress
