From the DC Gazette:
State Senator Refuses “To Eat With Tahmooressi’s Captors” Declines Luncheon Invitation
Excerpt…
(Sen Joel) Anderson declined an official invitation to a luncheon honoring Mexican President Pena Nieto. The reason is simple; prisoner Andrew Tahmooressi. Anderson said in a statement, “I do not have an appetite for foreign officials who deny U.S. citizens their basic human rights. I am concerned that our military would feel betrayed if it appeared we condoned the harsh and unfair treatment of Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi.”
Former gubernatorial candidate Tim Donnelly, also a Republican, recently declined the same invitation.
