As a constituent of your district, I am writing to urge you to uphold your oath of office by formally submitting articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. On November 20, 2025, President Trump used his social media platform, Truth Social, to call for the execution of six sitting Democratic members of Congress. To my knowledge, no president has ever made such statements. This represents an unprecedented and dangerous escalation in his rhetoric toward political opponents. Because the President’s post expressly calls for violence and was clearly intended to do so, it does not fall under the protections of the First Amendment. His statements appear to violate several federal statutes, including 18 U.S.C. § 115 (Threats Against Federal Officials), 18 U.S.C. § 875 (Interstate Threats), and 18 U.S.C. § 879 (Threats Against Certain Officials). Moreover, his words may be interpreted by his most devoted supporters as a call to action, potentially amounting to criminal solicitation under 18 U.S.C. § 373. We have reached a point where this behavior can no longer be dismissed as hyperbole or reframed as requiring additional context. The intent behind the President’s words—inciting or encouraging violence—was unmistakable. Therefore, I respectfully ask that you take immediate and appropriate action by introducing articles of impeachment against President Trump. Our democratic institutions, and the safety of our elected officials, depend on holding the President accountable for this conduct. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
