Gerry Connolly for Congress

The House made history on Wednesday, impeaching a president for only the third time in history. Now, the Senate must decide whether to remove Trump from office.

Yet, before even a single vote was cast in the House, Mitch McConnell had already told Fox News that his Senate would be “in total coordination with [...] the people who are representing the president” and that he would personally “take my cues from the president's lawyers.”

McConnell has made it clear that his GOP-controlled Senate intends to turn what should be their most serious duty into a farce. We can’t let that go unanswered, and Gerry needs your help!

SIGN ON: DEMAND A FAIR TRIAL!

While explaining his vote on Wednesday, Gerry issued a warning to the other chamber:

“Next month, the Senate will also take an oath, to ‘[...] do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws, so help me God.’ History will observe and judge whether they uphold that oath -- I hope you will, too.”

What's worse, McConnell is far from the only GOP Senator who’s made it clear that he won’t be an impartial juror. Lindsey Graham bragged that he won’t even “pretend to be a fair juror,” and Ted Cruz has said he’ll ensure “impeachment won’t go anywhere in the Senate.”

Faced with such blatant violation of their sacred oaths of office, a massive public outcry is our only recourse. Add your name NOW to demand Mitch McConnell’s Senate hold a fair trial that upholds their oaths of office, not their loyalty pledges to Donald Trump!

Thanks for standing with Gerry on this -- and standing up for justice!
