Friend,

The momentum to impeach Trump is growing. But as of this minute, just 210
Democrats have announced that they will support impeachment. That means
we're still 8 votes short of what's needed to pass a resolution to begin
an impeachment inquiry.(1)

need?

Dear Friend,

Nancy Pelosi just announced that the House of Representatives will
immediately begin formal impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump.(2)

This is it. Our chance to finally hold Trump accountable. It's all hands
on deck.

Trump's attempt to pressure Ukraine into a bogus investigation of Joe
Biden is a blatant abuse of power and exactly the kind of corruption that
impeachment was created to stop. But as of right now, 56 House Democrats
STILL haven't taken a position on impeachment.(3)

[ [link removed] ]Will you chip in to help demand that every Democrat support impeachment
and make sure voters know the truth about Trump's high crimes?

If Trump's attempt to blackmail the president of Ukraine into smearing
Biden isn't an impeachable offense, nothing is.

Here are the facts we know so far:(4)

* In July, Trump put a freeze on nearly $400 million in military aid for
Ukraine, a country currently threatened on its eastern border by
Russia.
* Then, Trump called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and asked
him to launch a baseless investigation into Joe Biden's son, Hunter
Biden.
* Finally, a whistleblower filed a complaint which Trump's own inspector
general said was urgent and credible, triggering a requirement that
Congress see the complaint.
* But Trump has refused to hand over the complaint, which is blatantly
illegal stonewalling of an investigation his own staff says is
legitimate.

Trump himself has openly admitted much of this, and thanks to tremendous
grassroots pressure, the dam finally broke -- Nancy Pelosi has called for
an impeachment inquiry.

There's incredible momentum for impeachment, but we need to keep it going.
Right now, Democrats in swing districts need to be flooded with phone
calls supporting impeachment. We all know that Fox News and Rush Limbaugh
will be rallying conservatives to call Congress to try to stop these
proceedings. We need to make even more noise, starting RIGHT NOW.

make sure voters know the truth about Trump's high crimes?

Yours in the fight for our democracy,
