Urgent Action Needed: Impeach Trump and Restore Congressional Authority

36 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

I am writing to express my grave concern over recent statements made by President Donald Trump regarding his legislative agenda, or rather, the lack thereof. His assertion that he "doesn't need anything more from Congress for the next four years" is not only alarming but fundamentally unconstitutional. The President's remarks, indicating that the GOP megabill signed in July "covers everything," represent a dangerous departure from the traditional balance of powers enshrined in our Constitution. This attitude reflects a troubling indifference to the essential process of governance and policymaking, and worse, it signals an authoritarian tendency to bypass the legislative branch entirely. This is not merely a matter of political disagreement; it's a crisis of constitutional proportions. The President is effectively attempting to seize powers rightfully belonging to Congress, and disturbingly, many Republican leaders seem willing to cede this ground to the executive branch. This erosion of congressional authority sets a dangerous precedent that threatens the very foundations of our democracy. The situation demands immediate and decisive action. I strongly urge you to initiate impeachment proceedings against President Trump without delay. His statements and actions clearly constitute executive overreach and are reminiscent of the words of a dictator, not a democratically elected leader. Furthermore, I call on you and your colleagues to reassert congressional authority. It is crucial that Congress reclaims its constitutional role as a co-equal branch of government and fulfills its duty to serve as a check on executive power. This includes actively engaging in the legislative process, oversight, and holding the executive branch accountable. Time is of the essence. Every day that passes without action further normalizes this unconstitutional behavior and weakens our democratic institutions. Please act now to defend our Constitution, restore the balance of powers, and ensure that our government continues to work for the people, not for the unchecked ambitions of any single individual.
