John,

I have proudly represented Colorado's 1st district in Congress for more than two decades. The constituents who have trusted me to advocate for their values have fueled me when reproductive rights and affordable health care were on the line -- and every time our rights and liberties were under attack. And now, they are what is fueling me in the fight for our democracy.

No one is above the Constitution, which is why I voted with the majority of my House colleagues to ask Vice President Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump from office for inciting the attack.

I am honored that Speaker Pelosi has asked me to serve as an impeachment manager to help defend our democracy during this critical moment in our nation's history. There is no doubt that through his actions in recent weeks, President Trump is one of the single greatest threats to the safety and security of our nation.

It's important, for the sake of our democracy and the future health of our nation, that he be held fully responsible for his crimes. He should be removed from office immediately, and I look forward to doing my part to ensure that happens as soon as possible.

It is my job to uphold the rule of law without fear or favor and make the case to the Senate that they should vote to remove Trump from office -- and to make sure that Trump is never allowed to hold office ever again.

I do not take this duty lightly. Our democracy is under attack, and it's up to me and my colleagues to put it back together.

You have stood by my side every time this lawless president has assaulted our values, our democracy, and our Constitution. It is time to hold him accountable, once and for all. This is the most important moment that we've faced yet, and I'm grateful to have you with me in this fight.

Thank you,

Diana
