A Letter To My Congressional Representatives on the DHS Abuses of Power in Portland, Oregon

Dear Speaker Pelosi / Senator Harris / Senator Feinstein,

There are a lot of crises happening right now, and I could write a letter three pages long simply detailing my fears and frustrations and what I would hope from Congress. “There are a lot of crises” is already a terrifying sentence I never would have hoped to see in my lifetime. But the one that is most concerning at this moment is the abuse of power by the Department of Homeland Security in Portland, Oregon.

I sent this out today in response to the DHS abducting and detaining protestors in Portland, Oregon. You can read the whole thing on my other blog. I encourage you all to contact your representatives about this too, whether Democrats or Republicans. It’s not hard—you can send an email right from their website at https://senate.gov or https://house.gov.
