An Open Letter

To: Sen. Murray, Rep. Newhouse, Sen. Cantwell

From: A constituent in Yakima, WA

May 30

Investigate ICE detention centers. Force feeding is a violation of ethics when done against the patient’s will. It’s a violation of bodily autonomy and fails to negotiate with the root cause of the issue. In New Jersey’s Delaney Hall, people who have been detained are denied visitation, held without due process, and so much more. It’s UnAmerican. People have due process here. Denying entry to the governor and pepper spraying an elected official so they won’t go in shows what they’ll do when people are watching and videoing. What’s happening without that accountability? Shut it down. Defund ICE. Hold abusers accountable. Release the Epstein files. Free Palestine. Protect kids and women. Healthcare for all. Universal child care. We want a government that works for us, not just the elite class.
