Speak up against arrests of Black journalists.

To: Sen. Warner, Sen. Kaine

From: A verified voter in Charlottesville, VA

February 2

I am disgusted that the Trump administration is targeting journalists—particularly Black ones. We are in a dangerous place when an Executive starts going after the press in this way. You need to stand up to protect the First Amendment and the independence of the press. In your reply, please include any statement the Senator has made denouncing this. Has he called for all charges against Don Lemon and the three other Black journalists arrested to be dropped? Because if not he should. Immediately.
