Dear Friend,
The thousands of commuters passing through the intersection of Mason and
Jefferson in San Francisco last Tuesday got an incontrovertible message:

The billboard has garnered widespread media attention, getting coverage in
The Hill, San Francisco Gate, MSN, and KTVU television, among other media
outlets.(1,2,3,4)
What's more, support for impeachment is going up every day, with favor for
it rising to 55% this week alone.(5) If we’re going to keep all eyes on
Congress and pressure our representatives to impeach Trump, we need to
keep this billboard up -- and we need your help.

This week, the ambassador to Ukraine, William Taylor, testified to
Congress that Donald Trump absolutely threatened to withhold foreign aid
if the country wouldn't investigate his political rival.(6) It's the
smoking gun -- the proof needed to show that Trump broke the law.
But with the media crowded by everything from Syria and Turkey to college
admissions scandals, it would be easy for the impeachment hearings to fall
out of the spotlight.
And although Senator Mitch Romney and Representative Francis Rooney have
shown willingness to vote for impeachment, most Republicans in Congress
have not -- and there are many Democrats who haven't committed to impeach,
either.(7)
Trump's transgressions get worse by the minute, and we need him to be
impeached immediately. If we're going to keep momentum up and all eyes on
Congress' impeachment trial, we need to keep our billboard going as long
as possible.

Yours in the fight for our democracy,
Caitlin, along with Analeeza, Annie, Brian, Deepthi, Diego, Eddie, Gabby,
Jay, Lindsay, Mai, Mary, Molly, Raquel, and Scottie (the Courage team)
