 DEMAND A FAIR,

TRANSPARENT SENATE TRIAL!


For the first time in US history, we are on track for a cover-up during a Senate impeachment trial. Midnight Mitch McConnell and GOP Senate leadership are:

  • Setting up roadblocks for witnesses/documents. For example, Trump’s lawyers and the Senate GOP are working to ensure Bolton won’t testify. Of what are they afraid?
  • Allowing a camera feed solely from government cameras – which Midnight Mitch controls. These cameras will only show who is speaking and won’t allow for the full picture of this historic event.
  • Limiting reporters to roped off areas, cutting off access to Senators.
  • Holding the trial in the middle of the night – each side getting 12 hours for opening arguments starting at 1 pm EST today; 10 am PST.

We are in the impeachment and removal process thanks to our calls and to the courageous work by responsible Members of Congress. Our Oregon delegation has led the way with Representatives Blumenauer, Bonamici, DeFazio and Schrader, as well as Senators Wyden and Merkley, all supporting the impeachment inquiry.

Representatives Blumenauer, Bonamici, DeFazio, and Schrader also upheld their constitutional duty and voted to impeach Trump.

Never forget! Greg Walden has failed us every step of the way, choosing to protect and enable the most corrupt, unfit president in the history of America.

Demand a Fair, Transparent Senate Trial!

We Want Witnesses, All Relevant Documents and Full Press Access!

During Prime Time with Network Cameras!


**ACTION ONE: CALL OUR SENATORS**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR SENATORS MERKLEY AND WYDEN:

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

. . . I want to thank the Senator for supporting the impeachment process and speaking out for a fair Senate Impeachment trial. But I’m very worried about a coverup with the Senate trial. I ask that he please push for:

  • A fair and just Senate impeachment trial during the light of day, with witnesses and documents.
  • The press to have full access to report on the Senate impeachment trial, with normal network camera coverage.

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 today because. . . 

. . . I remain outraged that Greg voted against impeaching Trump. Please tell him to right that wrong and put country before party. He should be insisting on a fair and transparent Senate impeachment trial with witnesses and documents as well as full access for the press instead of protecting the most unfit, corrupt president in American history. Has he no shame?

Even after announcing his retirement, 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.”
