An open letter to the U.S. Senate Call for the Resignation of Senators Cruz and Hawley
5,161 so far! Let’s get to 10,000 signers! Please join Senator Patty Murray in calling for the resignation of Senators Cruz and Hawley. From conservative George F. Will:
“The Trump-Hawley-Cruz insurrection against constitutional government will be an indelible stain on the nation. They, however, will not be so permanent. In 14 days, one of them will be removed from office by the constitutional processes he neither fathoms nor favors. It will take longer to scrub the other two from public life. Until that hygienic outcome is accomplished, from this day forward, everything they say or do or advocate should be disregarded as patent attempts to distract attention from the lurid fact of what they have become. Each will wear a scarlet ’S’ as a seditionist.”
For there to be zero consequences for their actions in both sowing doubts about electoral integrity and our democracy, and the stoking of insurrection on January 6, invites more elected officials to play to the worst in us to gain power. This kind of populism is cynical and dangerous, and has no place in the United States Senate.
