Subject: Demand Action: Republicans’ Refusal to Swear In Rep.-Elect Adelita Grijalva Is an Outrage Dear Democratic Leaders, I am writing as a deeply concerned American and a loyal Democratic voter who is outraged that Republican leaders have refused to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva of Arizona. This is not just a political slight — it is an assault on democracy itself. Every duly elected representative deserves to take their oath of office without partisan obstruction. By denying Rep.-elect Grijalva her rightful seat, Republican leadership is effectively silencing the voice of the voters who chose her. This sets a dangerous precedent that cannot be allowed to stand unchallenged. I urge you to speak out loudly and publicly against this abuse of power. The American people need to see Democrats fighting back with the same intensity that Republicans show when undermining our democratic norms. Please: • Demand immediate swearing-in of Rep.-elect Grijalva. • Call out Republican leaders by name for their undemocratic behavior. • Use every procedural and media tool available to expose this obstruction for what it is — a partisan attempt to weaken democracy and disenfranchise voters. We are counting on you to defend the principles of representation and fair governance. Silence or delay only emboldens those who wish to erode democracy further. Please stand up, speak out, and fight back — not just for Rep.-elect Grijalva, but for every American who believes in a government of, by, and for the people.
