An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Impeach Trump

28 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

I am writing to express my deep concerns about Donald Trump’s continued presence in public office and the immediate need for accountability under the U.S. Constitution. As my elected representative, it is your duty to uphold and defend the Constitution, and I urge you to take action to protect our democracy. Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution clearly states: “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” Trump has repeatedly demonstrated his unfitness for office and has engaged in actions that meet the criteria for impeachment: 1. The January 6th Insurrection – Trump incited a violent attack on our Capitol, attempting to overturn a lawful election. This was a direct assault on our democratic institutions and the peaceful transfer of power. 2. Convicted Felon – Trump has been found guilty in a court of law, yet he continues to seek public office. A convicted criminal should not be allowed to hold the highest office in the land. 3. Freezing Federal Funds – Trump has threatened to withhold federal funding to states and institutions that do not align with his political agenda. This is an abuse of executive power and a direct attack on the balance of power. 4. Dismissal of Inspectors General – Trump has systematically removed independent watchdogs who oversee government integrity, further eroding accountability. 5. Targeting Trans Youth – Trump and his administration have actively worked to strip rights from transgender individuals, particularly trans youth, violating basic human rights and protections. 6. Ending Birthright Citizenship – Trump’s plan to end birthright citizenship directly violates the 14th Amendment and is an attack on the fundamental principles of our nation. 7. Abuse of Power – From using the Department of Justice to protect himself to attempting to influence state elections, Trump has continuously demonstrated that he prioritizes his personal interests over the rule of law. As my representative, it is your responsibility to act. Silence or inaction in the face of these violations is complicity. The Constitution is not optional, and the duty to protect it falls on those elected to serve. I urge you to publicly and forcefully support impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump. Our democracy cannot afford another moment of inaction. Please respond with what steps you will take to uphold your oath and protect the rule of law.
