ACTION THREE: WIN IN 2020
BACKGROUND:
“[Trump] will not be acquitted. You cannot be acquitted if you don’t have a trial. And you can’t have a trial if you don’t have witnesses and documentation.”
— Nancy Pelosi
The Senate convenes at 1 p.m. Eastern time for four hours of debate on whether to have witnesses. We are on track for a tie vote, which Chief Justice Roberts is unlikely to break.
This is a critical moment. Make the Senate vote in the face of a huge public outcry. Make call volumes so high it it is clear they are betraying the country and our Constitution. Keep calling. #RightMatters. No matter what the GOP does.
Tell our Senators: America is not a dictatorship. Yet. We need a fair trial, and that means with witnesses called and evidence subpoenaed.
