An Open Letter

To: Sen. Budd, Sen. Tillis, Rep. Harrigan

From: A verified voter in Mooresville, NC

January 27, 2025

Presidents Trump offered clemency to every violent criminal convicted for attacking police officers, some who died or took their lives after suffering wounds trying to protect members of Congress. Christian Manley is one of these violent insurrectionists: “Christian Matthew Manley pleaded guilty to assaulting police with two cans of bear spray, and throwing an empty canister at officers. Manley then threw a metal rod at officers. Federal judge Tanya Chutkan told Manley at his sentencing hearing that, "there has to be an understanding that participating, taking up arms against law enforcement, taking up arms to basically try and overthrow the government, is going to be met with severe punishment." Manley was sentenced to more than four years in prison.” Trump has made it clear that if you commit violence in his behalf, you’ll be given clemency. Do NOT ERASE HISTORY. You will be remembered for how you supported or stood up to this President.
