From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAThe definition of "terrorist" will be changed to suit whoever is in power. It will be changed to include anyone who opposes Trump. Vote no on HR 9495, because it'll be a free pass to target nonprofits Trump and his cronies don't like.

From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAI am urging you to reject HR 9495! This bill is too broad and we both know that Trump will use it for political retaliation. He is NOT a normal Republican and it is imperative that you stop his abuse of power. The future of democracy depends on you!
