Team,
Just now, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald Trump.
It speaks to Trump’s corruption that this was only the third time in history that a president has been formally impeached. This is an important step in holding the president accountable. No one should be above the law -- not even the president.
But Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has made it clear that he doesn’t plan to hold a fair trial in the Senate, vowing “total coordination with the White House counsel” throughout the process.
Months ago, when it wasn’t politically expedient, Ilhan called for Trump’s impeachment. She put country over political convenience because holding the corrupt accountable is the right thing to do.
By standing with Trump, Republicans are making a mockery of the Constitution. They are abdicating their responsibility and their oath. We the people must demand that the U.S. Senate fulfills its constitutional duty.
Will you be one of the 218 signatures we need from D.C.? Sign the petition: The Senate must vote to remove Donald Trump from office!
Thank you for speaking out for our democracy. Together we’re going to make sure President Trump is held accountable for his abuses of power.
Team Ilhan
