Every day President Trump stays in office poses a risk to our people and democracy. As people of faith, we condemn violence and attempts to overthrow a fair election. Trump must be held accountable for his attacks on people and democracy. Tell Congress to remove President Trump from office immediately!
Last Wednesday, President Donald Trump incited a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. His supporters invaded and desecrated the Capitol building, threatening the lives of all Capitol Hill personnel and members of Congress, and five people have now died. Trump led his followers to seditious violence against our democratic institutions based on his continual lies about the outcome of the presidential election. And the underlying lie of all of Trump’s lies is that of white supremacy, which Trump has embraced since the beginning of his presidency. With America’s demons on display, we must clearly see our original sin of racism and how it has been perpetuated and enabled by too many white Americans, white Christians, and white elected officials, including the current president of the United States. Join with us and faith leaders across the nation in calling for the immediate removal of the president from office.
In faith and action, Sandy Ovalle |
