Friend, The nation cannot tolerate a president who does not respect the foundational principles of our constitutional democracy. With Trump’s acknowledgment that he urged Ukraine to conduct an investigation into a political opponent, the nation has reached a tipping point. Trump has evidenced a contempt for constitutional norms so severe that the U.S. House of Representatives has no choice but to undertake impeachment proceedings. Add your name urging the House of Representatives to impeach Trump. Sign now. Donald Trump’s abuse of power, corruption and disdain for constitutional values have been evident since he first took office. There is no question in our minds that, on the merits, he should be impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate. But there are huge uncertainties about how the impeachment process will play out. At the end of the day, the most important question may be: Will impeachment leave Trump stronger or weaker? The answer to that question depends on how we — all of us — do our job. We must make a clear and understandable case to every American, rooted in our constitutional values. Above all, we must mobilize in vast numbers. It starts with a simple action: Sign your name to support the impeachment of Donald Trump. You’re going to be hearing a lot from us about this. Great challenges are ahead. Together, we will meet them head on, to defend our democracy and the rule of law. Onward, Robert Weissman President, Public Citizen |
