People For Member,
Trump’s Senate impeachment trial for inciting the deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol begins TOMORROW!
Failing to hold Trump accountable would undermine our Constitution, our democracy, and the rule of law in fundamental ways and would send the message to future presidents and other government officials that it’s OKAY for them to incite an attempted coup or worse.
We must keep up the pressure to demand that the Senate convict and disqualify Trump from ever holding office again!
We're missing your name on our petition calling for Trump's conviction!
ADD YOUR NAME now demanding that the Senate vote to convict and disqualify Trump! >>
Thanks,
Zach

People For Member,
Even with preparations well underway for the impeachment trial in the Senate, far-right senators are already signaling they are willing to absolve Trump of responsibility for inciting the deadly insurrection on January 6.
We must keep up the pressure and let ANY senator who votes against conviction know that we will hold them accountable!
Rather than be willing to face the facts in the case, many on the right would rather make false assertions that the entire trial is unconstitutional -- ignoring a precedent set nearly 150 years ago.
Many legal scholars and right-leaning think tanks agree: convicting Trump, even though he is no longer in office, is constitutional and perfectly within the purview of the Senate.
With the possible exception of criminal prosecution, nothing other than conviction and disqualification by the Senate will truly send the message to future presidents that they cannot get away with rallying a seditious mob to attempt a coup.
We must continue calling for swift and decisive justice with the conviction of Trump, and then continue refocusing our efforts to advance a progressive agenda that can move our nation forward.
Thanks for all you do,
Zach, People For the American Way
