Friend, The news is deeply alarming. President-elect Trump has selected Representative Matt Gaetz, one of his most extreme and loyal supporters, to be our next Attorney General. As one of Trump’s most vocal and unyielding loyalists, Gaetz has shown time and again that he prioritizes Trump’s agenda over the rule of law. Now, Trump wants him at the helm of the Department of Justice – the very institution meant to safeguard our democracy. Tell the Senate to REJECT Matt Gaetz! >> This nomination is more than troubling. We’ve already seen what Trump demands from his allies: blind loyalty and a willingness to target his opponents. Gaetz’s record gives us every reason to believe he’ll do just that, bending the DOJ to Trump’s will and putting our fundamental rights at risk. Instead of upholding justice, Gaetz would likely weaponize the DOJ against those Trump deems enemies. This is not what the Attorney General’s office should stand for. We need an Attorney General who will defend the Constitution, who will protect all Americans, and who will act as a check – not a tool – for any president. This is a position that must be above partisanship and personal loyalty, and Matt Gaetz is absolutely not fit for the job. We need to make our voices heard now. Sign our petition today, urging the Senate to reject this dangerous nomination. Senators must understand the risks posed by confirming Gaetz and prioritize justice over political allegiance. They have a duty to carefully consider the qualifications and character of every nominee, especially for a role with such sweeping power. Let’s make sure they don’t rubber-stamp this disastrous pick. Add your name to our petition urging the Senate to reject Gaetz’s nomination. >> Together, we can show that the American people expect and deserve an Attorney General committed to democracy and justice for all – not one man’s political interests. Thank you for your advocacy. Zach, People For the American Way
