‘You Swore to Defend the Constitution Just as My Sons Did When They Joined the Military’

January 22, 2020 /

Dear Senators Booker, Menendez, and McConnell,

I am a retired teacher and the mother of two sons serving in the military. I have been following the news of the impeachment hearings by watching the live hearings and testimony in Congress and reading local and national newspapers. I care about how the impeachment proceedings in the Senate will be conducted and want to see a full and fair trial by impartial jurors and one in which witnesses are allowed to testify. When you took the oath of office you swore to support and defend the Constitution just as my sons did when they joined the military.

‘No Man Should Seek to Circumvent the Full Process of Law’

January 17, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee and Romney,

I am writing you to encourage you to thoroughly support a full, fair, and impartial trial of the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.  As a citizen of the United States, he should be accorded the right to a fair and impartial trial. As the president of the United States, he should be held accountable for his actions and have the right to have them reviewed in an impartial manner. No man should be above the law and no man should be denied the right to a full, unbiased trial. No man should seek to circumvent the full process of law.

‘Integrity Is Crucial to Our Nation’s Survival’

January 17, 2020 /

Dear Senators McSally and Sinema,

Integrity is crucial to our nation’s survival. Please objectively review the facts in the impeachment trial and decide based on the evidence. This is not a matter of staying within party lines. This is a matter of right and wrong, using the facts as well as your conscience to make the correct decision as a juror. You would deserve impartiality if YOU were on trial. Our nation deserves the same. Thank you for doing the right thing.

Sincerely,
Brenda (Arizona)

‘I Have Left the Party Because of the Deep Concern I Have’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee and Romney,

I am a voter in Utah who has affiliated with the Republican Party for my entire adult life, but I have left the party because of the deep concern I have regarding the actions of Republican lawmakers and leaders. The current degree of partisanship in Congress is unprecedented in my lifetime, and I am baffled by Republicans’ continued willingness to demonstrate blind party loyalty, especially when that loyalty conflicts with long-held conservative values.
