Friend,
Just one week following the devastating loss of his son, Rep. Jamie Raskin was facing down an angry insurrectionist mob as they stormed the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election – with his daughter by his side. Just weeks later, Rep. Raskin would go on to serve as the lead impeachment manager, arguing passionately before the Senate about the need to convict Donald Trump of the impeachment charges that were passed by the House.
It's hard to comprehend how Rep. Raskin could summon such courage and strength amid great personal tragedy, but we’re better as a nation because of his leadership. It’s why we’re proud to partner with our friends at American Promise for a virtual event on Wednesday, April 20 at 8:00 PM ET where Rep. Raskin will discuss his new book, Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth, and the Trials of American Democracy.
RSVP now to join us for what is sure to be a dynamic and engaging discussion! >>
During the event, Rep. Raskin will discuss the loss of his son to suicide, the attack on the U.S. Capitol and ensuing impeachment trial, the need to protect our democracy moving forward, and how current crises are affecting the mental health of many Americans.
As a former People For Senior Fellow, we’re deeply familiar with Rep. Jamie Raskin and his commitment to American democracy and defense of the American Way. At a time when the Far Right seems hellbent on undermining our democratic system in order to retain power, Rep. Raskin’s insight into how we can defend democracy through civic healing and reform is deeply needed.
Please join us next Wednesday at 8 PM ET for a chance to hear first-hand from Rep. Raskin >>
Thanks as always for all that you do,
Zach, People For the American Way
