Stop supporting the Genius Act and Stop the Authoritarianism!
To: Sen. Alsobrooks
From: A verified voter in Greenbelt, MD
May 21
First, I’m furious that you are one of 16 Senate Democrats who voted with Republicans to advance the GENIUS Act, a crypto-friendly bill that will enable Trump’s continued corruption. Unless it is rewritten to actually stop Trump from taking crypto-bribes, I expect you to oppose it when it next comes up for a vote.
I am also deeply alarmed by the DOJ’s filing charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver. Trying to throw opposition politicians in jail on ginned up charges is what kings and dictators do, not the leaders of free countries. Rep. McIver was inspecting an ICE detention center in her district. Video evidence suggests SHE was assaulted, not the other way around. You need to immediately and loudly condemn this authoritarian act by the Trump Administration and demand they drop the charges. Thanks.
