Donald Trump must be removed from office immediately:
ADD YOUR NAME
Dear Friend,
Yesterday, as members of Congress met to certify the results of the election, insurrectionists violently took to the United States Capitol and tried to disrupt our democratic process.
We must be clear: Donald Trump bears responsibility for this insurrection at the Capitol and the attempted coup of our government in which four people died.
In the months since the free and fair presidential election, Trump has advanced knowingly false claims to undermine and overturn the election results, a shameful violation of his sworn duty to uphold the Constitution of the United States and an interference with the peaceful transfer of power.
By stoking these fears of election integrity and the flames of white supremacy, he has again — and most egregiously — shown us he is unfit to be president. That is why the Human Rights Campaign is joining the calls for the formal and immediate removal of Trump from office, whether that be through the invocation of the 25th Amendment or through impeachment and conviction.
Add your name and join us in this fight.
If we do not hold him accountable now, we risk further damage to our democracy and, I fear, we set a dangerous precedent for the future — one where leaders weaponize division and fear to get their way when they do not like the facts at hand. Neither of which is acceptable.
We also need to condemn the violence and white privilege on full display from the rioters. It is hard to see yesterday’s images of them, arrogant and unafraid as they violate one of our most sacred institutions, and not compare those sights to the senseless police brutality that met nonviolent Black Lives Matter protesters nationwide last year.
Let our calls for Donald Trump’s removal from office be part of that condemnation … and a commitment to root out the hatred he has so dangerously and despicably fueled further. So, friend, I am asking you personally to join us in this fight. Every minute Trump is in the Oval Office, he poses a direct threat to our nation and our democracy — sign your name now.
Before I close, I want to leave you with a reminder: Even with yesterday’s darkness, our future can still be bright. We will get through this tragedy together and, for more on where we go from here — particularly with the historic wins in Georgia’s United States Senate races this week — please join me and other experts at an exclusive town hall this coming Monday. RSVP here.
Thank you for being a part of the Human Rights Campaign. Stay safe and stay engaged.
In Unity,
