Until the 2020 Election


CONGRESS MUST VOTE ON IMPEACHMENT


We are collectively calling on Congress to act decisively to hold immediate, robust, televised impeachment hearings, expose Trump’s abuses, corruption, and crimes, and vote on impeachment.

Our journey began five months ago when, after weeks of careful consideration, we issued the following statement on impeachment:

Trump has committed impeachable offenses. Congress must hold him accountable by opening an impeachment inquiry.

Since then, we have made calls, sent texts, written letters to editors, gathered at rallies and showed up at Greg Walden’s office with this ask. And on September 24, 2019, Speaker Nancy Pelosi declared the start of a formal impeachment inquiry.


We thank everyone who called and showed up to insist on an impeachment inquiry.
And we thank our Oregon Members of Congress who listened and supported an impeachment inquiry: Representative Earl Blumenauer, Representative Suzanne Bonamici, Representative Pete DeFazio, Senator Jeff Merkley, Representativve Kurt Schrader, Senator Ron Wyden. Sadly missing from this list is District 2’s Greg Walden.

President Trump pressured a foreign government to help him politically. Again and again, throughout his presidency, he has committed impeachable offenses, betraying our country and putting his own political and financial interests first.

No one is above the law.  


**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 because . . .

. . . I am very concerned about Trump’s abuse of power, corruption, and crimes. I thank the Senator for being a leader and calling for an impeachment inquiry. I now ask the Senator to use his voice and insist that:

  • Congress act decisively with immediate, robust, televised impeachment hearings that expose Trump’s abuses, corruption and crimes
  • those impeachment hearings end in a vote on impeachment

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 . . .

. . .  I am very concerned about Trump’s abuse of power, corruption, and calls for a civil war. When will Greg Walden rediscover his morality, live up to his oath of office, put our country over his party and support the impeachment process? I call on him to stand up for our country, the Constitution, the rule of law and support robust impeachment hearings now.

Through Greg’s actions and inactions — the silence is deafeninghe continues to signal that he fully supports Trump, regardless of how much damage Trump is doing to our democracy and to world stability. Know that we are still here, we will hold him accountable, we are working to flip his seat BLUE — #2020IsNow!

Thank you.”
