An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Impeach Trump for breaking 5 CFR 2635.702 Use of Public Office for Private Gain

18 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

Today President Trump broke the law when he endorsed and purchased a Tesla vehicle from Elon Musk, a government employee and contractor. Federal regulations explicitly state that an employee (including the president) "shall not use his public office for his own private gain, for the endorsement of any product, service, or enterprise, or for the private gain of friends, relatives, or persons with whom the employee is affiliated in a nongovernmental capacity." Trump knowingly and brazenly broke the law, and he should be immediately impeached and removed from office. We are a country of laws and everyone, including the President, must be held accountable to them.
