Arizona lawmakers joined the national choir of outraged voices on Twitter in response to Vice President Kamala Harris’ insensitive Memorial, Day weekend tweet.
“Enjoy the long weekend,” Harris tweeted. She made no mention of the reason for the long weekend.
Lawmakers reminded the vice president of the sacrifices the “long weekend” is meant to honor.
Long weekend? This is the same person who giggled and laughed while giving a non motivational speech at the Naval Academy on Friday. ??? https://t.co/y41WeNOxQ3

Uh, wow.
Alternative message: God bless those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Remember them this Memorial Day weekend. https://t.co/dg5cL7Efqi
