An Open Letter

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

From: A verified voter in Jefferson City, MO

August 5

Thousands of people are being abducted from their homes every day now, and there are multiple reports of DACA recipients being violently and unlawfully detained by ICE. You MUST take urgent action to protect our communities and deliver bold protections like the Dream and Promise Act! In recent weeks, reports have emerged detailing the unlawful detention of DACA recipients who have built their entire lives and careers in the U.S. In Florida, a DACA recipient was detained during a traffic stop and sent to the Everglades Detention Center. In California, Javier Diaz Santana, a DACA recipient who is deaf, was abducted from his place of work and detained without accommodations for nearly a month. 🚨This is terrorism. Committed by the people who cry Wolf about terrorism. The detention of these people — and the abduction of thousands more of our immigrant neighbors — make it clear why YOU NEED to take IMMEDIATE action to protect the millions of people who power our country! 🚨I DEMAND that you take URGENT action to release ALL individuals held in detention centers across the country, including the Everglades Detention Center in Florida. With millions of individuals, families, and communities terrorized, and thousands having their constitutional rights violated, YOU MUST pass bold protections like the Dream and Promise Act NOW to prevent more from being abducted! YOU SNIVELING COWARD. (Prove me wrong.)
