These murders are on you

To: Sen. Britt, Sen. Tuberville, Rep. Strong

From: A verified voter in Huntsville, AL

July 16

You are responsible for the deaths of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero. While other members of the House and Senate heeded the overwhelming support of the public and pleaded for constraints to be placed on ICE and CBP behavior, you chose to stall and drag out the process until you could eventually fund their immoral behavior with no constraints. Any reasonable constraints on their behavior were not there when these two human beings were murdered. No body cameras. No restrictions on use of arms, traffic stops, and more. You knew that if no changes were made, the murders in Minneapolis would be repeated later elsewhere. You cared more about staying on Trump's good side than about doing the right, moral thing. Make no mistake, these murders are on you. Sadly, you have also ensured that my own tax dollars finance them - this makes me beyond sad and angry. You could have prevented this. You chose not to do so. Please reflect on your choices and change your behavior.
