I call on Members of Congress to immediately schedule emergency in-person town halls and daily briefings to address the ongoing constitutional crisis.
The constitutional crisis has plunged our communities into uncertainty and fear. We are plagued with misinformation. We have been left anxious and confused about the safety of our jobs, our health care, our public infrastructure, and our civil rights.
During the Covid-19 crisis, elected officials held daily briefings to address concerns and provide Americans with reliable information and updates. The current constitutional crisis affecting us is equally dire and requires an equivalent response.
I also urge you to immediately schedule in-person emergency town halls. The perpetrators of this crisis thrive on division and isolation. By bringing us together, you can help counteract their efforts and strengthen the bonds that unite us. Telephone town halls or virtual meetings in which we cannot see or support one another are not sufficient.
Now, more than ever, we need your leadership for solidarity, clarity, and collective strength.
Please schedule daily briefings and in-person town halls immediately.
