Today is the one year anniversary of the day Donald Trump declared war on American democracy by launching a violent coup with the goal of overturning a free and fair election.
Since then, Donald Trump and a Republican Party that has indulged his most authoritarian instincts, have tested our democracy daily by leveraging his Big Lie as a pretext to pass voter suppression laws across America.
Here’s the bottom line. The danger of right wing authoritarian takeover of the United States isn't theoretical: it's here.
That's why I'm proud to work with my colleagues to protect our democracy from tyrants like Donald Trump.
And it’s why I’m doing everything I can to make sure Trump is fully held accountable for his unpatriotic crimes. We must set a precedent to deter future similar behavior.
Add your name if you agree that we must take bold and decisive action to defend our democracy against creeping authoritarianism!
As Chair of the Judiciary Committee, I’ve been on the frontline of standing up to rising right-wing authoritarianism, and I’ll never stop fighting.
That's why it's critical that we take action before it's too late.
Add your name if you agree!
Onward,
Jerry
