‘I Love the U.S., the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and Government of the People, by the People and for the People’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee and Romney,

I am a constituent currently registered as a Republican voter, mother, attorney, former teacher, community activist, patriotic American, and someone who has been contacting my representatives for years.

I have been following the news of the impeachment proceedings by reading a wide variety of news sources and reading the public documents.

I care about the impeachment proceedings because I love the United States, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and government of the people, by the people and for the people.

‘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.

‘I Believe You to Be an Ethical and Diplomatic Leader’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senator Romney,

I am so pleased that you are serving in the United States Senate, as I believe you to be an ethical and diplomatic leader, and one that we desperately need right now. I am a Republican from Sandy, and it’s been my privilege to be somewhat involved politically, as a Republican state delegate and precinct chair. I’ve recently become involved with Mormon Women for Ethical Government (MWEG) because I see a desperate need for ethical and moderate Republican voices to be heard.

‘Each Senator Is Required by Constitutional Oath to Be an Impartial Juror’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee, McConnell, and Romney,

I am a seventy year old Utahan and in all my years I have never been so fearful for the fate of the country I love. I have always voted but it has only been during this presidency that I have felt the need to contact my representatives on a regular basis. I have been shocked and saddened by the unethical, cruel and petty actions of our current president. His actions on Ukraine are just the tipping point.

‘It Will Take Moral Courage to Not Simply Decide as a Republican to Protect the President’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee and Romney,

I am a registered Republican voter. I beg you to help make the Senate impeachment trial a full and fair process. This means (1) breaking with those in the party who seem mainly interesting in maintaining personal or party power; (2) encouraging senators on both sides to minimize specious arguments that merely delay proceedings and confuse the electorate, and (3) invite sworn, relevant testimony (e.g., from John Bolton).

‘We Are far Above the Pettiness That Has Become Part of the Political Process’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee and Romney,

I have been following the news of the impeachment proceedings by listening to the hearings, reading a wide variety of news sources, reading the public documents, listening to various news sources and am disappointed in the partisanship the whole process was conducted. Please, as you participate in hearings in the Senate, please promote a full and fair impartial trial, subpoena and hear from sworn witnesses, and conduct the trial without prejudice and partisanship.

‘I Want to See Witnesses and Relevant Documents’

January 16, 2020 /

Dear Senators Lee and Romney,

I am a grandma who lives in West Jordan, Utah. I was in the USO during the Vietnam War and my husband was in the Navy. 

I remember watching the Nixon and the Clinton impeachment trials. This one strikes me as more like Nixon’s trial but the issues are even bigger. As much as I disliked the Watergate break-in, I never feared that Nixon was not a patriotic American. I didn’t fear that he was influenced by the Russians who were our enemy then and now.
