[Letter from Bennie Thompson to Michael C. Stenger Regarding President Trump's Continued Attacks on Four Members of Congress], July 18, 2019   [open pdf - 802KB]

From the Letter: "I am following up on my July 15th letter given President Trump's continued attacks on four Members of Congress. Last night at a campaign rally, the President once again used inflammatory rhetoric about the four Congresswomen, spurring the crowd to chant "send her back" in reference to Somali-born Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-5). In my earlier letter, I urged you, as Chairman, to convene an emergency meeting of the United States Capitol Police Board. I requested that the meeting occur within 48 hours of the letter and that I receive a classified readout of the meeting."
