On day one as Attorney General, Todd Blanche’s Justice Department released a memo attempting to shield the President’s actions from future and retroactive investigations.
It's illegal and unconstitutional.
The memo argues that executive privilege can cover confidential presidential communications with private advisers. In practice, that could give Trump and his allies a new excuse to resist congressional subpoenas and obstruct future investigations.
Add your name to demand that the Justice Department rescind this memo and affirm that no president is above the law. [[link removed]]

This is not an abstract legal debate. Congress has a constitutional duty to investigate corruption, expose abuses of power, and hold the executive branch accountable. A president cannot be allowed to create a blanket shield against scrutiny — especially one designed to reach backward and forward at the same time.
As the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, I know exactly what is at stake when an administration tries to place itself beyond accountability.
House Democrats will fight this in the courts. We will defend Congress’s oversight authority, the separation of powers, and the basic principle that the law applies to everyone.
Sign the petition now: Tell Todd Blanche’s DOJ to withdraw this memo and stop trying to put the President above the law. [[link removed]]
ADD YOUR NAME [[link removed]] Thank you for standing up for accountability.

P.S. As the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, I’ll have subpoena power to finally hold the Trump Administration accountable — but only if we win back Congress this November. Will you pitch in $5 or more to help us win back the House? [[link removed]]
