Washington, DC — Today, the Indivisible Project released the following statement:
“We are calling for the impeachment and removal of Donald Trump from office, and his disqualification from holding future office.
“We simply cannot just wait for Trump to leave office as his threat level to our democracy continues to increase. The House of Representatives must draw up articles of impeachment immediately, move quickly to vote on them, and send them to the Senate for a speedy trial, where Trump must be convicted and disqualified from ever holding federal office again.
“In the wake of the coup attempt at the Capitol, Republicans must face an explicit choice as to whether or not they will fully and completely reject him, and ensure that he can never hold elected office again. Impeaching and convicting him is the first step toward reversing the tide of violence, insurrection, and white supremacist terror that he has incited, at the Capitol and beyond.”
