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)

Will you make an urgent donation RIGHT NOW to help get the 218 votes we 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)

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.

Will you chip in to help urge every Democrat to support impeachment and make sure voters know the truth about Trump's high crimes?

Yours in the fight for our democracy,
