An open letter to the U.S. House of Representatives

McIver’s arrest is not acceptable

16 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

I am deeply alarmed by the DOJ’s filing charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver. Trying to throw opposition politicians in jail on ginned up charges is what kings and dictators do, not the leaders of free countries. Rep. McIver was inspecting an ICE detention center in her district. Video evidence suggests SHE was assaulted, not the other way around. The Congressmember needs to immediately and loudly condemn this authoritarian act by the Trump Administration and demand they drop the charges. We don’t jail government officials who distrust other parts of our government!
