Concentration camps

To: Sen. King, Pres. Trump, Rep. Pingree, Sen. Collins

From: A constituent in Brunswick, ME

February 9

The US is holding more than 70k detainees in warehouses across the US. Some are mere children. Some are not even being given basic medical care. Some are dying. Are we any better than the German citizens who looked the other way as Nazis ran concentration camps? Listen to Heather Cox Richardson’s letter from Sunday. This is very disturbing. IT’S CRUEL. Not to mention it’s an absolute waste of MILLIONS in taxpayer money as many of these people haven’t committed a damn crime. They were contributing members of society, doing honest work and paying taxes. We are in a really ugly place right now if we allow our government to do this. There is no bar that is too low from Trump, Stephen Miller and that crowd.
