WASHINGTON, D.C. — East Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert is voicing concerns over what he terms “apparent unconstitutional tampering of private constituent mail.” In a news release, Gohmert says, “In January, my staff received a letter addressed to my official office from a Christian missionary, which was already opened and stamped “DOJ MAILROOM” with a date and “X-RAYED” on the stamp. Last week, my office received a second piece of mail from a constituent, mailed from east Texas and postmarked September 2021. It took four-and-a-half months to reach my office and was also opened and bore a stamp from the DOJ.” <\/p>\n
