Respect the First Ammendment

To: Sen. Hawley, Rep. Wagner, Sen. Schmitt

From: A verified voter in Defiance, MO

June 14

The reported incident involving Senator Alex Padilla being forcibly removed from a public event is deeply concerning. It represents a violation of his constitutional rights to freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Public officials must respect the First Amendment rights of all citizens, regardless of political affiliation. I urge you to condemn this unacceptable conduct and take appropriate measures to ensure such infringements on civil liberties do not occur again. Protecting freedom of expression is essential for maintaining a healthy democracy.
