ACTION ALERT Protect the Special Counsel and the Rule of Law


Call your Representative and Senators today and tell them to protect the Special Counsel and the rule of law.

Despite the ravings of our unhinged President, almost 70% of the American people support Special Counsel Mueller's investigation of possible collusion between Trump's campaign and Russian government to influence the 2016 election. More than two-thirds of American voters support Mueller investigating Trump's business activities, and almost 6 in 10 support Mueller investigating allegations that Trump's associates paid hush money to women who say they had affairs with him. (ABC-Washington Post poll, 4/13/2018)

The deeper the Special Counsel digs, the more hyperbolic the President becomes, threatening to fire the Special Counsel, Deputy Attorney General, the Attorney General, or all three. Congress MUST ACT NOW to protect the Special Counsel and the rule of law.

Legislation has recently (finally) been introduced in the Senate that would provide some protections. Congress needs to hear from voters like you: It is critical the President know that interfering with the investigations will not be permitted and any firings would have dire consequences for the President and his Administration.

Call your Representative and Senators today and tell them to protect the Special Counsel and the rule of law.

Suggested script:

Caller: Hi! I’m a constituent and voter from [part of state/District]. I am calling to urge [Representative/Senator] to use every tool available to prevent President Trump from firing Special Counsel Mueller or otherwise impeding the investigation, such as by firing Rod Rosenstein. I’m concerned he may do that, launching a constitutional crisis. I urge [Representative/Senator] to speak out and tell the President that firing Mueller would be a red line he must not cross, and to co-sponsor [H.R. 3654/S.2644] to show [his/her] support for protecting Mueller and the investigation.
