Oppose Jeffries as Speaker of the House
To: Rep. Scholten
From: A verified voter in Grand Rapids, MI
November 13
I am writing to express my opposition to Hakeem Jeffries' continued leadership. As a voter deeply concerned about the threat posed by the Trump movement, I have been disappointed by what I see as an insufficiently strong and visible effort to confront anti-democratic actions, defend constitutional norms, and provide a compelling opposition agenda.
At a time when many Americans are looking for forceful leadership, I believe Democratic leaders must be more willing to use every available political and procedural tool to challenge policies and actions that undermine democratic institutions. In my view, Representative Jeffries has not met that standard.
I urge you to support new leadership that will more effectively organize, communicate, and fight for democratic values and accountability.
