From: Marie Gilliam <br />To: 2Mavor <br />Subject: [External] Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz <br />Date: Friday, July 16, 20215:05:06 PM <br />To the Mayor, City Council, and City Manager: <br />I am writing to express my opposition and chagrin at the fact the City will be accommodating <br />the spread of hate, racism, and misinformation by allowing Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt <br />Gaetz the use of public facilities that are paid for by local taxpayers. These two individuals <br />peddle dangerous lies that have, no doubt, resulted in the spread of COVID19 across the <br />country and continue to do so; they have aided and abetted the insurrection that took place in <br />our Capitol on January 6; and they espouse vile racist views that have driven violence and <br />division. In short, they are UN-AMERICAN views that have NO PLACE in our community, the <br />State of California, and our country as a whole. I hope that you will reconsider your priorities <br />and prevent the use of the City as a tool in their hateful agenda. <br />I used to live in Orange County, a place famous for its conservative right wing leanings. The <br />manager of the facility they had rented there had the wisdom to say NO to these <br />reprehensible people . I hope the City of Riverside will do the same. Your citizens and the <br />Inland Empire are watching, and counting on you to step up and SAY NO TO HATE. <br />Sincerely, <br />Marie Gilliam <br />40 S.
