This afternoon, California Senator Alex Padilla was violently removed from a Department of Homeland Security press conference – assaulted, forced to the ground, and handcuffed by federal officers. His offense? Doing his job as a public servant… by asking a question… in the state he represents.
Will Ken Calvert, David Valadao, and Young Kim speak out and condemn this unacceptable and brazen assault on their fellow Californian and U.S. Senator?
DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“We’re still waiting on Ken Calvert, David Valadao, and Young Kim to denounce this outrageous and wholly indefensible treatment of their own state’s Senator. No one is above the law – and Californians are demanding immediate answers and accountability.” |
