Subject: Please Support the ICE Resolution
Dear Supervisor <<Last Name>>,
I am writing as a constituent from <<Town>> to urge you to vote in favor of the upcoming resolution before the County Board of Supervisors addressing ICE enforcement and its impact on our community.
Across the country, we are seeing troubling reports of increasingly aggressive immigration enforcement tactics, including actions that raise serious concerns about due process, constitutional rights, and community safety. Regardless of where people stand on federal immigration policy, no one should accept lawlessness, excessive force, or tactics that create fear in neighborhoods, schools, and places of worship.
This resolution does not attempt to rewrite federal law. It simply affirms that Columbia County’s role is to serve and protect our residents, uphold constitutional rights, and focus our local resources on community well-being — not take on expanded federal immigration enforcement responsibilities.
Supporting this resolution sends a clear message: Columbia County stands for public safety, due process, and the dignity of every person who calls this community home.
I respectfully ask that you vote yes.
Thank you for your service and for considering my perspective.
Sincerely,
<<Your Name>>
<<Your Address / Town>>
