An Open Letter

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

From: A constituent in Plattsburg, MO

January 21

Over 170 US citizens have been detained by DHS/ICE – why would civilians be detained? Many are detained under brutal force, injured, only to be release without any charges a few hours or days later. This is unacceptable. Have you passed a LAW requiring citizens to carry proof of citizenship? I’m not aware of one. Last year, 2025, over 30 people DIED in DHS custody – why is that? These actions appear to substantiate DHS/ICE is a dangerous, incompetent group of personnel. I expect a clear and concise answer – you have ignored my emails - perhaps because you are afraid to answer? Perhaps you want to terrorize people.
