We have an emergency situation,
John. I don’t say this lightly.
We need all hands on deck!!!

Missouri Republicans are trying to pass a new law that would allow the
governor to remove elected St. Louis County Prosecutor Kim Gardner from
office. They are voting TOMORROW.

This is by far the single most dangerous, racist, sexist legislative
attack we have encountered against our work.

Kim was just reelected last week by the voters of St. Louis with more than
60% of the vote, but the Missouri State Legislature is set to vote on this
new law on TOMORROW at 10:30 am. This is how much they hate her. Time is
running out. We need to act fast.

[ [link removed] ]Will you sign our super-petition and demand that the Missouri State
Legislature vote against this Amendment, and that Governor Mike Parson,
and St. Louis elected officials stand against this blatant grab for
power?

This is one of the most anti-democratic acts we’ve seen in the modern era.

Kim Gardner IS St. Louis’s Circuit Attorney. With the help of Real Justice
supporters across the country, she won reelection with over 60% of the
vote because the people stand with her platform. But that didn’t stop
Missouri State Sen. Bob Onder from introducing an Amendment to Missouri
Senate Bill 1 that would allow the Republican Governor to fire Kim
Gardner.

This isn’t just a threat against the people of Missouri — it also serves
as a dangerous precedent that will weaken democracy across this nation. If
SB1 is approved with this amendment, the Missouri government will
inherently dismantle the democratic right to vote and this will serve as a
model for anti-democratic leaders across the nation to maintain their
racist systems of prosecution, mass incarceration, and police brutality.

The power to choose who our elected officials should be must remain with
the people. Anything less would be a violation of our rights as Americans.
We refuse to let Republicans get away with this undemocratic attack. But
we need to work hard and fast before they vote for this new Amendment
tomorrow morning.

[ [link removed] ]A national public outcry could stop this Amendment from passing. Please
sign our petition and then send it to five more people so we can stop
Missouri Republicans from removing Kim Gardner from office.

Hurry,
Shaun
