An Open Letter

From: A verified voter in Bath, NY

What new horrors have to be reported for Congress to take action against ICE's persistent illegality, cruelty, and suppression of our rights? If you don't care about the rule of law (which you ought) or the constitution (which you swore to protect), then do the math on the cost of ICE detentions, the cost to the economy and the cost of future lawsuits. Each day brings fresh revelations of horror: maggots in food, torture, suicide, agents throwing pepper spray at peaceful protesters, higher-ups giving illegal orders to violate habeas corpus. Read this: "Since October, at least seven people detained by ICE have died by suicide-a number that "far exceeds the growth of the detainee population," according to the AP. Overall, 51 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. Experts believe many of these deaths could've been prevented with the proper care." ICE DETENTION IS NOT OKAY. ICE QUOTAS are NOT OKAY. ICE BREAKS THE LAW. MOST DETAINEES ARE INNOCENT. Meanwhile .... POTUS, a convicted felon and best pal of pedophile Epstein, tears down half the White House? And Texans choose a criminal as their senate nominee?? All this lawless unconstitutional cruelty and corruption stops when a small handful of GOPs in congress decide that enough is enough. Please, persuade your colleagues. Help them understand how History will record their failures. NO FUNDS FOR ICE STOP THE TRUMP FASCIST REICH Prepare for Trump to reject election outcomes
