@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov So. As your constituent, I think you owe me an answer as to why you allowed a National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk to go through on UNANIMOUS CONSENT! His death was a tragedy, but for you to just lay down rather than make any waves is disgraceful.

1) political violence is never an appropriate choice in a civilized society

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not.
An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

I’m old enough to remember the Repubs in the Senate using the filibuster on things such as voting rights & reproductive rights!
The Senate Dems should hear from their constituents ahead of the vote… the R’s should be forced to negotiate & the only way is if they filibuster and hold the line.
