Folks, Donald Trump just threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act.

This would give him the power to deploy the U.S. military into American cities, overriding state and local governments, and enable troops to take part in domestic law enforcement activities, which they are otherwise prohibited from engaging in.

This is how authoritarian power grabs begin. And if we stay silent, he’ll think he can get away with it. Will you sign on to our petition telling Trump to keep the military out of our cities?

Every signature adds to the growing national chorus, making it clear that we will not be bullied into submission.

Together, we can show that democracy won’t back down.
