Hi,

When Democrats controlled the House, they voted to remove MAGA extremists
Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar from their respective committees
because of Greene and Gosar’s support for political violence. But now, the
GOP is preparing to give them their committee seats back, including on the
powerful House Oversight committee.^1

Greene was removed from her committees one month after her election for
statements in support of political violence and racist and anti-semitic
conspiracy theories.^2 Gosar was removed after sharing a cartoon depicting
him murdering AOC and attacking President Biden.^3 Their histories of
inciting political violence and their ties to the violent January 6th
insurrection are good reasons for the House of Representatives to punish
them.

House Oversight committee and all other committees.

The January 6th insurrection was a violent right-wing attempt to overthrow
the government. Greene and Gosar’s close ties to the January 6th attack
and their espousal of racist, anti-semitic conspiracy theories used
historically as a basis for violence make them an appropriate target for
congressional disapproval.

They don’t belong on committees, especially when they have shown
themselves unwilling to peaceably participate in our democracy.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition: MAGA extremists tied to the political violence of
January 6th should not be on House committees.

Thanks for taking action,

Tihi and the team at Demand Progress
