Letter: Democrats show cowardice

By Rebecca Limeham, Vancouver

I am one of the 52 percent of 3rd Congressional District residents who voted for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez.

I was horrified to see her vote with the same Republicans who are dismantling our government to censure Rep. Al Green, D-Texas.

It’s become evident that she and the other 10 Democrats who voted for his censure are not up for this fight. They should be standing with the American people who are having sleepless nights worrying about how they will survive. I wish all Democrats had followed Mr. Green’s example, but instead they behave like simpering cowards in the face of fascism.
