Protect civil liberties: Review Ozturk's case fairly

To: Sen. Husted, Rep. Sykes, Sen. Moreno

From: A constituent in Akron, OH

March 28

The detention of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Turkish doctoral student at Tufts University, without explanation or charges raises serious concerns about due process and free speech protections. While national security considerations must be taken into account, legal immigrants like Ozturk should not face detention or deportation without proper legal proceedings and a chance to respond to any allegations against them. Suppressing peaceful political expression contradicts core American values of free speech. I urge a thorough review of Ozturk's case and adherence to constitutional rights, including prohibitions against arbitrary detention. Protecting civil liberties while maintaining security is crucial for an open, democratic society.
