The impeachment and removal of Donald Trump from office is a matter of utmost urgency for the safety and integrity of our democracy. As your constituent, I implore you to take immediate action to initiate impeachment proceedings.
The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated. Trump's actions have consistently undermined the foundations of our democratic system. Since his first day in office on January 20, 2017, organizations like Free Speech For People and RootsAction have been sounding the alarm about his violations of the Constitution, particularly the Emoluments Clauses.
These concerns are not isolated. Over 1.4 million Americans have signed petitions calling for an impeachment investigation, demonstrating widespread public support for holding Trump accountable. Furthermore, seventeen cities across our nation have passed local resolutions urging for an impeachment inquiry, showcasing the depth of concern at the community level.
The need for impeachment extends beyond the Emoluments Clause violations. Trump's pattern of abusing power has expanded to include numerous other offenses that threaten the very fabric of our republic. The "Impeach Trump Again" campaign, launched on January 20, 2025, highlights ongoing Emoluments Clause violations and unlawful practices during the 2024 election campaign, indicating that these issues persist and have potentially worsened.
Time is of the essence. Every day that passes without action emboldens Trump and increases the risk to our democratic institutions. I urge you to act swiftly, working with your colleagues to initiate impeachment proceedings immediately. The future of our nation depends on your courage and commitment to upholding the Constitution.
Please, do not delay. Our democracy hangs in the balance, and your constituents are counting on you to take decisive action. Impeach Donald Trump now, before irreparable damage is done to our country's democratic foundations.
