Hi,
A right-wing mob stormed Congress today in an attempt to stop the electoral vote count -- minutes after Donald Trump spoke at their rally.
It took hours for Trump to speak out about this attack. When he finally did, he spent most of time talking about how he believes the election was stolen, the opposite of de-escalation.
It's just the latest brazen assault on our democracy stemming from Trump's refusal to accept his defeat in the 2020 election. Rep. Ilhan Omar and other progressives in Congress are now drawing up articles of impeachment.1 We need to speak up and urge Congress to act immediately. There's no time to lose.
Sign the petition: Tell Congress to impeach Trump NOW!
Trump has abused his power ever since he took office four years ago. But now he is putting Congress and our very democracy at risk.
On Saturday he tried to influence Georgia's Secretary of State to change the vote count, and made threats if they refused his demands. That's trying to corrupt the election, through and through.
Trump cannot be trusted to facilitate a peaceful transfer of power. There are still two weeks to go until President-elect Biden is inaugurated. We need to tell Congress to act now.
Demand Progress electronically delivers your petition signatures directly to Congressional offices -- so when you sign our petition, you're letting your Representative and Senators know you want them to stop Trump and impeach him without delay. Will you speak up now?
Add your name: Tell Congress to impeach Trump immediately!
Thanks for taking action,
Robert and the team at Demand Progress
