As we fight back against Trump we need each other more than ever. That's
why were working with partners like Robert Reich at Inequality Media to
pressure election officials to disqualify Trump from running for President
under the fourteenth Amendment.

If we've learned anything from the fight against Trump, it's that when
progressives organize early and raise public awareness, we can win.

State, State Election Boards and Federal and State Courts reject and
disqualify Trump from running for President under the Fourteenth Amendment
for engaging in the January 6th Insurrection.

John,

January 6th was not a rally that got out of control. It was not a protest
that turned violent unexpectedly. Trump gathered people to come to the
Capitol with the expressed goal to stop the certification and overturn the
election.

His supporters had zip ties, semi-automatic weapons, Molotov cocktails,
and pipe bombs. They brought nooses and hunted through the Capitol
building shouting “where’s Nancy.”

They came within inches of breaching the Senate chamber before officers
were able to get it secured. They intended to do harm and many are in jail
because of it.

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment clearly disqualifies Donald Trump from
becoming President: "No person shall … hold any office … under the United
States … who, having previously taken an oath … to support the
Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or
rebellion against the same.”

Let’s make sure that every leader in America knows that we are counting on
them to stand up for democracy and hold Donald Trump accountable for
rallying his supporters to storm the Capitol in a violent attempt to stop
the certification of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ victory.

Not only did Donald Trump foment violence and disinformation for weeks,
just hours before violence broke out in DC and people died, Trump rallied
his supporters to storm the Capitol, continuing to claim he won in a
landslide saying “the other side knows it.”

“All of us here today do not want to see our election victory stolen by
emboldened radical Democrats. We will never give up. We will never
concede. It will never happen. You don’t concede when there’s theft
involved.”

Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore. We will not let
them silence your voices,” he said. “We’re not going to let it happen.”

Almost immediately after Trump left the stage, his supporters, many of
them heavily armed, stormed Capitol and the violence began. While watching
this unfold, Trump refused to call in the National Guard to help Capitol
police.

Trump encouraged and incited violence and the Constitution clearly shows
what the consequences should be.

When Trump disrupted the transition of presidential power mandated by the
Constitution after having sworn to defend it, he immediately became
ineligible to be President or hold any other public office ever again.

The American people are depending on our leaders to stand up and hold
Trump accountable. Thank you for demanding action to protect our
democracy.
