Evans letter: Congress needs protection from electorate

I recently read that Congress is going to allocate $50 million to the city of Charlotte for the purpose of security at the Democratic National Convention.
Sure as God made little green apples, some city will get a like amount when the Republicans have their shindig.
Betcha not one new job will be created, just funds to offset overtime for law enforcement personnel. I realize the president will also be in attendance, but he has the Secret Service and FBI whenever he visits someplace.
Sure speaks a lot for our elected members of Congress when we have to keep them protected from the folks who sent them to Washington, D.C.
