The letter has a very formal yet passionate tone. This is a very intelligent decision by the author, as it is important to be very respectful and eloquent in the face of a political superior. Especially for the case of trying to persuade. The ethos of the author, however, is quite lacking. She only states that she is a University of Arizona freshman, something unlikely to establish any major credibility. Under this, she claims that the medicare budget should remain at the same amount rather than be cut. This is done by pointing out alternatives and the negative externalities from cutting spending. I would like to see a better building of credibility from her, as well as some statistical evidence to back her claims. We are dealing with numbers in money, so numbers in the solution would be effective.
