STOP THE LAWLESSNESS!

FROM THE WHITE HOUSE

TO THE BORDER!  


Our democracy is crumbling under the Trump administration. Today we focus on two areas: Trump’s impeachable offenses of obstruction of justice and human rights abuses at the border.

Trump and his administration have committed and continue to commit impeachable offenses of obstruction of justice – as outlined in the Mueller report and as evident by the refusal to turn over documents and testify. As Congress performs its constitutional oversight duties, Trump and his politicized Department of Justice took the brazen step of asserting executive privilege over the ENTIRE Mueller report. Congress must hold Attorney General Barr in contempt and start an impeachment inquiry.

The lawlessness of the Trump administration extends to the treatment of immigrants at the border:

  • Children continue to die in their care
  • Records show the Trump administration had no way to reunite children – which is state-sponsored kidnapping
  • Asylum seekers will be made to pay fees – as they flee for their lives

As these atrocities mount—with Greg Walden’s silent approval—the Trump administration makes requests for more border funding. Congress must deny the Trump regime these funds, stop these human rights violations.  

Be vigilant! 

Persist! Insist! Resist!

Please Make Your Calls!  


**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 . . .

. . . Trump and his administration have committed and continue to commit impeachable offenses while committing human rights abuses at the border.  I ask the Senator to:

  1. Say publicly Trump has committed impeachable offenses and that the House must start an impeachment inquiry
  2. Support the House holding Barr in contempt of Congress
  3. Vote no on any supplemental funding request for the Department of Homeland Security.

 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 . . .

. . . Trump and his administration have committed and continue to commit impeachable offenses while committing human rights abuses at the border—with Greg Walden’s silent approval. I demand that Greg:

  1. Publicly say Trump has committed impeachable offenses and sign onto the impeachment inquiry resolution
  2. Support holding Barr in contempt of Congress
  3. Vote no on any supplemental funding request for the Department of Homeland Security.

We need an impeachment inquiry to uncover the facts. Voting against this would be an unconscionable act. Greg’s oath of office demands that he step back from tribalist concerns and act on the extensive evidence of Trump’s lawless, impeachable offenses.

Greg Walden’s SILENCE IS CONSENT!

Through his actions and inactions, Greg appears to fully support Trump—regardless of how much damage Trump is doing to our democracy and world stability. Let him know that we are still here, that we will be working to flip his seat BLUE — #2020StartsNow!

Thank you.”
