LOOK WHAT THE DEMOCRATIC HOUSE HAS DONE!
THANK YOU!!
Yesterday Mueller made it clear — the remedy for presidential misconduct is impeachment. Although DOJ policy prevented Mueller from indicting the president, Mueller described multiple instances where the president committed crimes. Numerous committees have opened more than 20 investigations into the wrongdoing of the Trump Administration.
Democrats have proven that they can “investigate and legislate at the same time.” Since taking back the House, they have passed 49 bills, many with bipartisan support. These bills would:
- Strengthen our electoral processes
- Enact responsible gun safety measures
- Lower prescription drug prices
- Protect people with pre-existing conditions
- End military involvement in Yemen
- Re-authorize the Violence Against Women Act
- Promote equal pay
- Protect LGBTQ rights
- Keep the US in the Paris Climate Agreement
- Strengthen the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
- Restore net neutrality
But McConnell’s Senate refuses to consider these bills. Trump threw a tantrum and won’t discuss infrastructure legislation. Bipartisan disaster relief was derailed by one GOP vote.
Democrats were elected to investigate and check this lawless president and to enact legislation that benefits the people.
We recognize and appreciate this vital work.
It’s now time for the next step – an impeachment inquiry.
**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 . . .
I am thankful for the many worthy bills passed by the House. But instead of uniting to oppose attacks on our electoral system, strengthen our healthcare, or address our failing infrastructure, the GOP falsely accuse Democrats of failing to legislate. I want you to publicly denounce McConnell and Trump for refusing to allow these bills to be considered by the Senate. Please also work to persuade your colleagues in the House to open an impeachment inquiry now so that I can be thankful for that, too! Democrats have shown that they can investigate and legislate at the same time.
Thank you.”

**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 . . .
McConnell and Trump are falsely accusing the House of failing to legislate. Greg Walden knows differently because he is in the House and has even joined to support a few of the 49 bills that the House has passed this session. Additionally, yesterday Mueller made it clear — impeachment is the remedy for presidential misconduct and his report is chock full of it. It’s time for Greg Walden to tell the truth about the hard work the House has done and to do his job by joining his colleagues in pushing for the House to open an impeachment inquiry now.
Thank you.”
