[ [link removed] ]SIGN TODAY: This vote could happen as early as tonight!

PFAW Member,

Over the weekend, Trump launched into what is the latest of his ongoing
efforts to further divide our nation by invoking blatantly racist rhetoric
aimed at four freshman lawmakers – all women of color – in the Democratic
Party. Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida
Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley were targeted in a vicious – and remarkably
ignorant – series of tweets from President Trump, who stated that they
should “go back” to their countries of origin (which for three out of four
of them is the U.S.) and asked, “why don’t they go back and help fix the
totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”

House leadership announced on Monday a planned resolution to condemn the
president’s remarks, with Speaker Pelosi saying in a letter to colleagues
that "the House cannot allow the President’s characterization of
immigrants to our country to stand. Our Republican colleagues must join us
in condemning the President’s xenophobic tweets."

[ [link removed] ]Please support this Democratic effort and force Republican members of
Congress to confront Trump’s racism head on! Sign the petition today
urging the House to pass the resolution condemning Trump’s dangerous and
hateful rhetoric!>>

Not only was Trump willing to post the tweets over the weekend, he
continues to double-down on the rhetoric, calling upon THEM to apologize
for “foul language and hatred” he claims they are using – a shameful
attempt to demonize the legitimate criticisms they have each made of his
administration.

Unfortunately, few in the Republican Party have been willing to speak out
against Trump’s rhetoric for fear that they too could fall victim to one
of his Twitter tirades, but this type of deplorable behavior must be
condemned!

[ [link removed] ]Urge your representative to denounce Trump’s racism!>>

This type of hateful rhetoric was a hallmark of Trump’s 2016 campaign and
it’s very clear now that he has every intention of further capitalizing on
and amplifying the fearmongering that has played so well to his base of
supporters.

Trump’s dangerous and hateful rhetoric continues to deepen our nation’s
divides and does so in a way that damages the very spirit of the American
Way.

Join me in condemning Trump’s racism.

Thank you,

- Zach, PFAW
