From a verified voter in Pittsburgh, PABefore we allow Trump & Co. to spend billions on buying warehouses to detain immigrants, this administration should be held responsible for the terrible job they are already doing housing detainees. There are stories of lack of food, substandard medical treatment, violence against detainees, lack o
From a verified voter in Pittsburgh, PAThe Epstein Transparency Act was very clear. ALL the files were to be released. Victims/survivors information should be protected (it was not) ALL perpetrators names should be unreacted with explanations for DOJ redactions and methods.

From a constituent in Pittsburgh, PAAs a concerned citizen, I firmly oppose the SAVE Act, viewing it as a blatant attempt by the GOP to limit voter access and participation. This legislation is not just a misguided effort to address nonexistent voter fraud; it’s a calculated move to disenfranchise millions of Americans, particularly t
From a constituent in Pittsburgh, PAIt's time to impeach and convict.
I am writing again today congressmembers to reiterate dissent from my previous letter. I won't take up too much of your time with this one. I just have one question for you: Is this what we want America to be known for? If we continue to allow this presidency to go to term, we are greenlighting it

From a verified voter in Pittsburgh, PAOur government calls protesters ‘domestic terrorists’ and undocumented immigrants ‘violent gang members’ without ANY evidence or proof.

From a verified voter in Pittsburgh, PAThere has been an ICE arrest in my hometown, Oakmont, PA.

From a verified voter in Pittsburgh, PAHOLD ICE ACCOUNTABLE
Yesterday, we witnessed ICE kill another resident of Minneapolis. You have failed to hold ICE accountable for its campaign of violence. It is time for ICE to withdraw from Minneapolis and for independent investigations of deaths at the hands of ICE agents. It is time for you to do your job.
