Yesterday, in an action that major media outlets have called “stunning” and “dramatic,” the House vote to impeach Department of Homeland Security Mayorkas failed. This was an important victory for the Constitution.
More than 4,600 of you joined LDAD’s Call-to-Action, and we are deeply grateful for your support. Yesterday morning, we issued this press release announcing the results of our efforts.
We also appreciate the hard work by many other pro-democracy organizations to fight this dangerous impeachment. Together, we amplified each other’s voices and sent a clear message to Congress that democracy and the rule of law matter.
But we cannot assume this battle is over. News reports indicate that there will be further efforts this week to again bring the impeachment vote back to the House floor. For that reason, we are leaving our Call-to-Action open, and will continue to seek additional signers who oppose this unconstitutional use of the impeachment powers. |
