TRUMP COMMITTED IMPEACHABLE OFFENSES

OPEN AN IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY


We deserve a government and Congress that works for the people. A government and Congress working for the people must address Trump’s impeachable offenses and open an impeachment inquiry.

It has been weeks since the Mueller report came out, outlining Trump’s obstruction of justice, yet Trump is more emboldened than ever.  He and his administration are blocking more than 20 separate investigations while Attorney General Barr and Treasury Secretary Mnuchin defy subpoenas. Trade wars escalate and Trump laughs about murdering immigrants. Congress must open an impeachment inquiry, showing no one is above the law.

An impeachment inquiry begins in the House and Representatives must own this responsibility, separating it from the Senate.  Just as this Democratic led House stood up for the country by passing pro-democracy (HR 1) and gun violence prevention (HR 8) bills, with no guaranteed passage in the Senate, they—including Greg Walden—must again act for the country, and open an impeachment inquiry.  No one knows what will happen after public hearings and fear of the unknown must not stop an impeachment inquiry.

This House was elected based on the promise of oversight.  Trump has committed impeachable offenses.

The House Must Provide Oversight!

Open 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 . . .

. . . Trump and his administration have and continue to commit impeachable offenses. I ask the Senator to:

  • Say publicly Trump has committed impeachable offenses and the house must start an impeachment inquiry
  • Support the House holding Barr and Mnuchin in contempt of Congress

Thank you”

SENATOR RON WYDEN

**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 and continue to commit impeachable offenses. I demand that Greg Walden:

  • Publicly say Trump has committed impeachable offenses and sign onto the impeachment inquiry resolution
  • Hold Barr and Mnuchin in Contempt of Congress

Has been conned by Trump? Or is he just part of the GOP coverup of the most incompetent, corrupt president in history? 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.”
