An Open Letter

To: Sen. Tillis, Sen. Budd, Rep. Harrigan

From: A verified voter in Mooresville, NC

March 10, 2025

The arrest of pro-Palestinian student protester, Mahmoud Khalid, is a violation of his First Amendment rights. Mr. Khalid is a permanent U.S. resident and green card holder. We have the right to protest in this country. He was picked up by immigration authorities and then taken to an undisclosed location unknown to his pregnant wife and his attorney. I urge you to speak up against this corrupt administration and its violations of our constitution. You know this is wrong. Donald Trump is not a king. He cannot ignore our constitution. Congress is supposed to be a check and a balance for the other two branches of our government. Trump and Musk are trying to turn this country into a dictatorship like Nazi Germany. This is not right. They can’t just arrest whoever they don’t like and ignore laws they don’t like. Please honor the oath you took to preserve and protect our constitution and speak up when our power hungry president violates it.
