PFAW Member,
Just in time for the holiday season ... the U.S. House has voted to impeach Donald Trump!
We need at least 50K signatures calling on the Senate to CONVICT AND REMOVE Trump when the articles of impeachment reach the Senate for trial in the New Year. 14,991 supporters have already added their name -- will you help us reach our goal by adding yours today?
The evidence that Trump is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors is overwhelming. Yet while the House has made a clear and convincing case that Trump should be impeached, Republicans continue to abdicate their Constitutional responsibilities by placing a premium on reelecting the president, regardless of the consequences.
Senate Republicans should be doing everything they can to uphold the oath they are about to take to do "impartial justice according to the Constitution and the laws." But we’ve already seen Senate Republicans making a mockery of the process – including Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who has rebuffed Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on whether witnesses would be allowed to testify – something supported by over 70% of Americans.
I know I’ll be following each and every one of those Republicans and how they vote closely – and I know you are too, friend.
AND we’re going to do everything we can to hold them accountable in 2020.
If Republicans fail to impeach and remove Trump in the Senate, it serves as a dangerous precedent on the powers of the presidency and inevitably erodes the co-equal balance of power our Founding Fathers so carefully constructed.
Our Constitution, our Republic, hangs in the balance.
Thanks for all that you do,
-- Zach, PFAW
