Dear Friend,

By the end of this week, the U.S. Senate will face a crucial vote in the
impeachment trial of President Trump. What’s at stake is whether to call
witnesses and allow new documentary evidence to be presented BEFORE a vote
to remove the President of the United States.

As Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said, “A trial with no evidence is
not a trial at all; it's a cover-up.” [1] That's exactly what Mitch
McConnell is doing right now. That’s why MomsRising is taking action NOW
and joining with partners on Capitol Hill to say NO to a cover-up and
demand the U.S. Senate allow witness testimony and documentary evidence
during the impeachment trial.

[ [link removed] ]Join us—along with many of our organizational partners—on Wednesday,
January 29th, in the Hart Senate office building at noon to demand no
cover-up.

What’s happening? On Wednesday, January 29th at noon, MomsRising is
joining with Center for Popular Democracy, Women's March, MoveOn, Public
Citizen and many more organizations for a mass mobilization in the Hart
Senate Building Atrium (120 Constitution Avenue NE). We are joining our
voices together to demand a fair impeachment trial that includes witness
testimony and documentary evidence. 

*Note: There will be a LOT happening on Wednesday on the Hill, including
an orientation / training in the morning, this mass meetup in the Hart
building at noon, and then more direct actions led by partner
organizations around the Hill. As you can imagine, tensions are running
high, so while we encourage you to bring your children so they, too, can
exercise their right to make their voices heard, we also encourage you to
put safety first and use your best judgement as to whether any
demonstrations happening around the Hill are child-appropriate. Remember:
You can leave at any time if you need to. (Once you RSVP, you'll receive
an email with more details about the day's events.)

There has never been an impeachment trial without witnesses. [2] There is
no sound reason not to permit new evidence. If Republicans choose to move
ahead without witnesses or documents, then this trial is a complete sham.

[ [link removed] ]Sign up for more information and to join us to demand a fair trial with
witnesses and evidence.

The more people who speak out, the bigger our impact. Please take a moment
to forward our RSVP link to your friends and family and invite your
friends on social media:

Together we are a powerful voice for our democracy.
