The Honorable Donald J. Trump
President of the United States
Trump National Doral
4400 NW 87th Avenue
Miami, FL 33178Dear President Trump,
I am writing to you as a concerned citizen and steadfast supporter of your leadership, deeply troubled by the proposed construction of industrial wind turbines in the pristine natural surroundings of Capon Springs, West Virginia, by Competitive Power Ventures (CPV). This project threatens to destroy the beauty, tranquility, and ecological integrity of our beloved community—a place cherished for its unspoiled landscapes and rich heritage.
The overwhelming majority of residents in Capon Springs strongly oppose this development. We fear that these massive turbines will irreparably harm our environment, disrupt local wildlife, and diminish the quality of life for generations to come. Our voices have been loud and clear, yet CPV continues to advance this project with little regard for public input or environmental impact.
In addition to the environmental concerns, there are serious and well-documented questions about CPV’s credibility and motives. The company has faced allegations of corruption and unethical conduct in other ventures, raising red flags about its trustworthiness and intentions in Capon Springs. We believe our community deserves transparency, accountability, and fair treatment—not backroom deals that prioritize profits for politically connected corporations over the well-being of American citizens.
Mr. President, you have long been a champion for rural communities and a defender of American values. We respectfully urge you to take immediate action to help us stop this harmful project. We believe that, as President, you could:
Direct the Department of the Interior and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to conduct a comprehensive environmental review and require full public hearings on the project.
Encourage a federal investigation into CPV’s business practices and project financing, especially in light of past allegations of corruption and influence peddling.
Use executive influence to suspend or deny any federal permits, tax credits, or subsidies tied to this wind project until full transparency and public support are ensured.
Advocate for reforms to ensure greater local control over energy infrastructure projects, empowering small communities to reject developments that threaten their heritage and environment.
Capon Springs is more than just a beautiful place—it is a living symbol of the values that make America great: freedom, faith, family, and stewardship of God’s creation. We need your help to preserve it.
Thank you for your time, your leadership, and your unwavering commitment to protecting the American people. I hope you will stand with us, the people of Capon Springs, and help safeguard our land, our community, and our way of life.
Sincerely,
[Your Full Name]
