Condemn Trump’s threat to free speech

To: Sen. Schiff, Sen. Padilla

From: A constituent in Twentynine Palms, CA

May 2

I just read a statement from Donald Trump, saying that your colleague, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, "should not be allowed" to express his opinion. No matter whether you agree with Jeffries' opinion or not, the suggestion that any American citizen should be silenced for expressing an opinion is an outrageous violation of our First Amendment. This is not a partisan issue. I hope you will act swiftly and firmly, publicly affirming that this kind of statement has no place in the United States of America. Full text: "Hakeem Jeffries just called the Supreme Court of the United States an illegitimate Court! This is a Low IQ individual, who should not be allowed to talk that way about one of the Greatest Institutions anywhere in the World. He should withdraw the statement, IMMEDIATELY! President DONALD J. TRUMP" Source: https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116494898897346360
