**Demand Immediate Halt to Illegal Maritime Bombings** I am outraged over the ongoing maritime bombings that are not only violating international and U.S. law but also failing to address drug trafficking while endangering innocent lives. I urge you to take immediate action to stop these illegal and ineffective operations. These bombings fundamentally contradict our nation's core principle of "innocent until proven guilty." By indiscriminately attacking vessels at sea, we are abandoning due process and potentially harming innocent civilians. This approach is not only morally reprehensible but also legally indefensible under both domestic and international law. Furthermore, these tactics have proven ineffective in combating drug trafficking. They create collateral damage without addressing the root causes of the drug trade or disrupting major trafficking networks. Instead, they risk escalating tensions and damaging our international relationships all while killing the very people who could give more information about the drug trafficking operation. I implore you to return to Congress and work tirelessly to put an immediate stop to these bombings. Introduce or support legislation that prohibits such tactics and redirects resources towards more effective and humane methods of combating drug trafficking. Demand accountability from those who have authorized these illegal actions. Every day that passes without action means more lives at risk and further erosion of our moral standing in the world. As my representative, I expect you to be a voice of reason and justice in this critical matter. Please respond in writing describing the actions you have taken. Thank you.
