John,
Joe Biden is now President of the United States. He is focused on bringing
Americans together, and his first actions in office have been ambitious,
as his administration works to dismantle Trump's legacy of racism and
lies.
But, we cannot let calls for “unity” become an excuse for letting the
instigators of the January 6 insurrection off the hook. There can be no
healing without accountability.
The main organizer of the “Stop the Steal” campaign has said that three
House Republicans may have helped organize the assault on the U.S.
Capitol.
Congressmen Paul Gosar, Andy Biggs, and Mo Brooks allegedly “schemed up”
the attack that left several people dead.^[ [link removed] ]
Worse yet, Representative Mikie Sherrill, a former CIA analyst, says that
Republican members of Congress led the attackers on a reconnaissance tour
of the Capitol the day before the attack.^[ [link removed] ]
The 14th Amendment explicitly states that anyone who has "engaged in
insurrection" against the United States Constitution is disqualified from
serving in the U.S. Congress.
Case closed. They must go.

The January 6 white supremacist riot was planned and organized out in the
open, and these far-right members of Congress enabled the mob to seek to
violently overthrow the results of a free and fair election.
Rep. Brooks told the mob about to storm the Capitol that, "Today is the
day American patriots start taking down names and kicking ass! Our
ancestors sacrificed their blood, their sweat, their tears... Are you
willing to do the same?"
Rep. Gosar told a crowd in Arizona, while recruiting people to join the
January 6 insurrection, that, "Once we conquer the Hill, Donald Trump is
returned to being the president.”
We cannot allow this attack on our democracy simply to be washed away now
that there’s a new administration.
We will keep pounding the drum to demand accountability for the January 6
attack because if seditionists get away with it, it will happen again. And
the next time our democracy may not survive.
[2]Join me and add your name to demand that these three House Republicans
and any other Member of Congress proven to have incited, planned, or
participated in the January 6 mob attack on the US Capitol resign or be
expelled.
