CALL TO ACTION #816: Congress: Impeach and Remove Trump (December 5, 2019)
333 Days
Until the 2020 Election
CONGRESS:
IMPEACH AND REMOVE TRUMP
Yesterday, constitutional scholars testifying before the House Judiciary Committee confirmed what we all know to be true:
“President Trump’s conduct . . . clearly constitutes impeachable high crimes and misdemeanors under the Constitution” – Professor Noah Feldman, Harvard
“ . . . when President Trump invited, indeed demanded, foreign involvement in our upcoming election, he struck at the very heart of what makes this a Republic to which we pledge allegiance” – Professor Pamela Karlan, Stanford
“If what we’re talking about is not impeachable, then nothing is impeachable” – Professor Michael Gerhardt, University of North Carolina.
Impeach and Remove Trump

**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 today because . . .

PS: POTUS will be impeached for his high crimes and misdemeanors. Greg might want to reconsider his current path of leaving Congress on the wrong side of history.
Through his actions and inactions, Greg continues to signal his full support for trumpism, regardless of how much damage Trump is doing to our democracy and to world stability. Know that we are still here and will continue working to flip ORD2 Blue in 2020.
Thank you.”
