Legislation on hostage relief: Balance security and civil liberties

To: Sen. Padilla, Sen. Butler

From: A constituent in Trabuco Canyon, CA

November 21

This bill aims to provide relief for American citizens who have been unlawfully detained or held hostage abroad by postponing their tax deadlines, refunding late fees, and terminating the tax-exempt status of terrorist-supporting organizations. While assisting hostages is commendable, the provisions revoking tax exemptions raise concerns over due process and could have unintended consequences. A more measured approach balancing national security with civil liberties may be preferable. I urge you to carefully consider these issues and the long-term implications before deciding how to vote on this legislation.
