Call your rep today to encourage them to support AOC’s articles of impeachment. I will block anyone who tells me why they, personally, cannot and therefore why it’s pointless.
NEW: AOC introduces articles of impeachment against Justices Thomas and Alito for failure to disclose gifts and failure to recuse. Cosponsors: Lee, Tlaib, Watson Coleman, Ramirez, Frost, Omar, Bowman Thomas: ocasio-cortez.house.gov/sites/evo-su... Alito: ocasio-cortez.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

And heck, let's talk about why it IS important! Is the current GOP-majority House going to impeach Thomas and Alito? Of course not! Is it important for members of Congress to know this is an issue that motivates their voters and constituents so they focus on it in this and future terms? OH MAI OUI

We laughed when the GOP voted 37 pointless times to repeal the ACA from 2014-2016 but they knew what they were doing

If nothing else, they showed they cared about what their base cared about.

Exactly. It's a statement of intent: "We're done pretending everything is normal. If you give us the levers of power, we're not just going to keep talking about norms violations, we're going to take action to reclaim our democracy."

I read that last word incorrectly on the first pass.

I just spoke with MAGA-lite Juan Ciscomani's Tucson office and politely told them the crisis of confidence around SCOTUS is a non-partisan issue.

I asked for a reply, and of course it's a generic form letter. Ah, well, nevertheless.

Most send form letters. Getting a response isn’t the goal, the goal is volume of incoming.

Why would republicans block this?

All my reps are Republicans but I called anyway. They shouldn't be free from the heat just because they're actively opposed to ethics.

They are the ones who need to be called. Thank you.

Mine already supports it. ;-)

Call to thank them! It’s important to give them the positive feedback too.

I was like “I’m assuming mine is already in favor” and lol she’s listed as the first cosponsor

Nope, I’m wrong, incorrect Lee

Wired: Doing this Also wired: Calling Dick Durbin to insist he introduce the same thing in the Senate

So I did email my rep. She’s MAGA, so I’m not hopeful. Then I donated to her opponent and will continue to work hard to flip OR-5.

Already called and asked him to sign on. Got through to the DC office too on like the second ring, so phone traffic seems like it might be low. Too low...
Avatar
Same. That surprised me too.

If nothing else, it will annoy my Christofascist rep.

If your rep, like mine, isn't running for re-election, may I suggest also telling the people running for their place that this is an important issue? I've had some luck with that in the past.

My rep is a cosponsor, so I’ll thank her!

Not currently in the US but I did send a note to her office with thanks. These corrupt assholes need to go, and this is the first serious attempt at accountability and it’s about time someone took it seriously.
Avatar
I just did, as well as please vote no on KOSA and please stop the Palestinian genocide.

Thank you thank you thank you

They are not kings and should be held accountable to the people they serve, which would be us, the citizens of the United States of America.

Both called and emailed Rep DeGette’s office today!

I mean. I actually can't, because I can't use a phone! But definitely agree with Contact Your Rep, Etc.
