As an American committed to upholding the rule of law and preserving the integrity of our justice system, I strongly urge you to vote against confirming Pam Bondi as the next Attorney General. Her longstanding ties to Donald Trump and her active role in pushing false claims about the 2020 election being "stolen" raise serious concerns about her ability to lead the Department of Justice in an impartial and non-partisan manner. The Attorney General must be someone who will prioritize equal justice under the law, not someone beholden to partisan interests or personal loyalties to the President. Ms. Bondi's public support for Trump during his impeachment trials and legal battles demonstrates a concerning lack of independence and willingness to put Trump's political agenda ahead of the fair administration of justice. Furthermore, her past actions as Florida's Attorney General, where she allegedly declined to pursue a fraud investigation into Trump University after receiving a $25,000 donation from Trump, cast doubt on her commitment to prosecuting wrongdoing without fear or favor. The American people deserve an Attorney General beyond reproach whose sole allegiance is to the Constitution and the rule of law. Preserving public trust in the Department of Justice and the integrity of our legal system should be the utmost priority. I implore you to thoroughly examine Ms. Bondi's record and question her ability to separate politics from the impartial enforcement of the law. The nation is watching, and confirming a nominee who appears deeply compromised by her political ties to the President would deal a devastating blow to American democracy and the principles of justice we hold dear. I urge you to reject this nomination and demand an Attorney General worthy of the American people's trust.
