It’s been three weeks since Donald Trump incited a violent insurrection to try and prevent Congress from certifying the results of the 2020 election.

This week, the House delivered the article of impeachment to the Senate — making Trump the first president in American history to be impeached twice.

He has brought incredible shame to this nation, and in order to move forward as a country we must hold him accountable for his actions.

Trump may no longer be in office, but we cannot establish the precedent that a president in their last weeks in office can seek to prevent the peaceful transition of power. We can never allow this abuse of power to happen again.

Soon, the Senate will begin its impeachment trial and it’ll be up to us to determine whether or not to convict Trump and hold him accountable.

So I’m asking you today to add your name next to mine and urge the Senate to convict Trump and disqualify him from ever holding office again.

ADD YOUR NAME

Actions must have consequences. Especially those that threaten to erode our nation’s democratic norms and undo decades worth of progress.

I may be new to the Senate, but I think we can accomplish two things at the same time. We can pass pandemic relief that is greatly needed in communities across the country, while also holding Trump accountable and ensuring another threat to our democracy like this never happens again.

I will make sure to keep you up to date on our progress.
