Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 18, 2019
To paraphrase one of our founding mothers, Abigail Adams: A people may let a President fall, yet still remain a people, but if a President lets his people slip from him, he is no longer a President. Just as Abigail Adams warned, Donald Trump has let the people slip from him. He works for himself, not us. He tried to extort a foreign government into investigating a political rival, and he has unlawfully withheld witnesses and evidence. If we want a democracy, today we must stand for the rule of law. A vote to impeach is a vote to remain a government that is of, for, and by the people. It is a vote born of great fear for our future, but also rooted in optimism: that if we stand for the truth, for our Constitution, we can continue to create a country of liberty, justice, and equality for all.
