Letter: Lee should respect other members of Congress
(Pablo Martinez Monsivais | The Associated Press) Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, pauses while speakings to members of the media after leaving a closed door meeting about Saudi Arabia, Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2018, on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Sen. Mike Lee should be censured by the Senate. Public mockery of another member of Congress is unacceptable and should not be tolerated, no matter how much he disagrees. All ideas should be taken seriously and discussed.
Lee’s public shenanigans not only cost taxpayers unnecessary money, but border on bullying and intimidation. It is unbecoming to a member of the esteemed Senate that is supposed to represent the people of Utah.
