CONGRESS MUST HOLD TRUMP ACCOUNTABLE FOR ONGOING IMPEACHABLE OFFENSES


Trump’s impeachable offenses—far more serious than those of Presidents Nixon and Clinton combined—include:

  • Obstruction of justice
  • Abusing pardon power
  • Profiting from the presidency by violating domestic/foreign emoluments clauses
  • Colluding with foreign governments (Russia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia)
  • Inciting political and police violence
  • Engaging in voter intimidation and suppression
  • Discriminating against Muslims
  • Seeking prosecution of political adversaries and non-prosecution of allies
  • Using government agencies to punish enemies (CNN, Jeff Bezos)
  • Attacking the free press
  • Violating immigrants’ rights
  • Violating campaign finance laws (hush money payments)
  • Declaring an unconstitutional emergency to support funding border wall

Trump has recently:

  • Instructed the border patrol to violate the law, promising pardons they do
  • Floated punishing sanctuary cities by shipping imprisoned refugees there
  • Put our security at risk by refusing to permit an investigation of Russia’s assault on our democracy
  • Illegally obstructed the legislative process by refusing to produce subpoenaed witnesses/documents, threatening potential witnesses, improperly using the Judicial Branch to keep impeachable conduct hidden until after the 2020 election
  • Claimed he’s effectively above the law

With each passing day, Trump’s lawlessness further erodes our democracy and jeopardizes our safety and well-being. And Greg Walden says nothing meaningful, does nothing to stop the slide into authoritarianism. 

We the People are the last line of defense!

We Cannot Afford to Wait!

Tell Members of Congress to hold Trump Accountable for his

Impeachable Offenses.

TODAY!


**ACTION ONE: CALL OUR SENATORS**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR SENATORS WYDEN AND MERKLEY:

“My name is [–] and I’m a constituent from [town/city], Oregon [zip code]. I am calling because . . .

. . . Donald Trump has declared war on the Legislative Branch. He continues to commit impeachable offenses with impunity, refusing to permit Congress to carry out its constitutionally mandated oversight responsibilities and attempting to hide his transgressions from the American people until after the 2020 election. I demand that the Senator call Trump’s actions impeachable offenses and to call for hearings in the House to hold Trump accountable.

Thank You.”

SENATOR JEFF MERKLEY

**ACTION TWO: CALL COMPLICIT GREG WALDEN**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR WALDEN:

“My name is [–] and I’m a constituent from [town/city], Oregon [zip code]. I am calling because . . .

. . . Donald Trump has declared war on the Legislative Branch. He continues to commit impeachable offenses with impunity, refusing to permit Congress to carry out its constitutionally mandated oversight responsibilities and attempting to hide his transgressions from the American people until after the 2020 election. I demand that Greg Walden call Trump’s actions impeachable offenses, call for hearings in the House and bring Trump to Justice.

SILENCE IS CONSENT.

Greg seems to be declaring through his actions that Trump is his POTUS—right or wrong—regardless of how much damage Trump is doing to our democracy and world stability.

#2020StartsNow

Thank you.”

COMPLICIT GREG WALDEN

DC (202) 225-6730, Medford: (541) 776-4646
