An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Disqualify Donald Trump

44 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

I hope this letter finds you well, and I appreciate the opportunity to communicate my concerns as a constituent of our great state. I am writing to express my deep apprehension and to seek your support in addressing a matter of utmost importance for our democracy. The events of January 6th, 2021, at the United States Capitol were not only a threat to the safety of our elected officials but also a dark moment in our nation’s history. As investigations into this incident continue, it is evident that former President Donald Trump’s actions and rhetoric played a significant role in inciting the violence that occurred that day. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution stipulates that no person shall hold office who has engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the Constitution of the United States. While the 14th Amendment has primarily been applied to former Confederate officials, its principles remain relevant today. I firmly believe that it is imperative to consider the application of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment in the context of recent events. Donald Trump’s actions leading up to and on January 6th raise serious concerns about his adherence to the Constitution and his commitment to the peaceful transition of power. I respectfully request that you support and advocate for a thorough and impartial examination of the events of January 6th and the potential application of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment in this case. It is essential that our democracy remains strong, and that we take steps to prevent any future attempts to undermine it. I trust in your dedication to serving our community and upholding the values of our democracy. Your leadership in addressing this matter would be a significant step toward healing and safeguarding our democratic institutions. Thank you for your attention to this critical issue.
