Folks,
In yet another recent show of division and bigotry, Donald Trump has fired General C.Q. Brown—Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff—and pushed out five other admirals and generals in an unprecedented shake-up of U.S. military leadership.
Let me be clear: firing military leaders for reasons that appear to be political loyalty tests or based on race and gender—rather than their performance is
fundamentally un-American and a complete executive overreach.
This not only threatens our national security but it also threatens the integrity of our entire democracy. The results of last November’s election made one thing very clear:
Democrats must invest in grassroots organizing all year long, not just during election season.
Will you please consider chipping in $10 or whatever you can to help us get closer to our quarterly fundraising goal?

Donald Trump is
politicizing our military. This is a blatant power grab—an unconstitutional attempt to subvert checks and balances and ignore previously approved appointments; he hasn’t even given reasoning as to why he fired these leaders. From stacking the federal government with unqualified partisans to now targeting top military leaders, Donald Trump has launched an all-out war on our government’s ability to function.
Will you help me fight back by chipping in whatever you can today?
Thank you for your support,
Rep. Terri Sewell
