| Dear 5849376, Donald Trump's desperation to cover up his misdeeds is mounting. He just asserted executive privilege to shield hidden portions of Robert Mueller's full unredacted report and all of its underlying evidence.1 It couldn't be any clearer that Trump is once again abusing executive powers to cover up his own criminal activities. If Congress doesn't act with urgency to confront his lawless behavior, our democracy will pay the price. Tomorrow, we're taking this fight to the Capitol and delivering 10 million petition signatures demanding that Congress open an impeachment investigation of Trump immediately. Can you help flood Representative Cynthia Axne's offices with calls to show that people in Iowa will have her back if she leads on impeachment now? Call Rep. Axne: Iowa constituents have your back. Support H.Res.257 to open an impeachment inquiry of Trump now. Click here to start your call. Trump is flagrantly obstructing justice – and Congress is letting him get away with it. More than 600 former prosecutors have already concluded that Donald Trump would've been charged with obstruction of justice if he weren't the president of the United States.2 That's not all – Trump is instructing his lackeys not to comply with demands from Democrats in the House of Representatives. - He instructed Donald McGahn, former White House counsel and key witness in Robert Mueller's investigation, not to testify in front of the House Comittee on the Judiciary.3
- Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin refused to hand over Trump's tax returns by claiming the request "lacks a legitimate legislative purpose," defying the law and a Supreme Court precedent. 4
Trump and his lapdogs have no respect for Congress or the Constitution. Trump is a con man and bully, and he has got to go. Rep. Axne has the power and responsibility to step up and use all the tools at her disposal, including impeachment, to defend our democracy. Call Rep. Axne: Iowa constituents have your back.
