To ensure no repeat of Wednesday’s attempted coup, Congress must demand accountability for all colluders and enact legislation precluding such behavior.

We deserve elected officials who care about democracy.  Trump and his GOP commit treason and sedition to hold on to minority rule. There must be consequences for this treason now.

As we move into a new year and a new Administration there’s much to feel hopeful about. More Americans are getting vaccinated every day.  We can work for an end to medical racism that has caused COVID to ravage Black communities. A COVID relief bill was finally passed. At the same time, Trump is pardoning criminals who lied and obstructed justice on his behalf.  He is encouraging violence, and his seditious supporters are attempting a coup. We can demand a more robust relief bill and accountability.  

The policy team will be taking a much-needed rest from December 25th through January 1st. During this interlude Indivisible Oregon will continue to provide opportunities for election work in GA to flip the Senate blue. And Indivisible maintains a website where you can record your COVID-19 stories and our MoCs can listen to how their constituents have been affected.

Trump’s been assaulting our system of government for years. His efforts to overturn the election have become ever more egregious. The next Congress must reclaim its oversight role, investigating Trump’s abuses. This Congress must ensure a peaceful transfer of power by impeaching and removing him.

Congress’s Covid-19 relief bill will certainly help, but it’s late and far too limited to stop the damage sweeping across the country. We need to thank Democrats for the best parts of the bill, and ask them to keep fighting for more generous relief.

The battle over coronavirus relief shows who cares for us. House Democrats passed comprehensive COVID relief months ago - which Senate Democrats support. McConnell and his GOP refuse to help us, instead rushing through judges and bargaining our lives away for corporate liability shields and for changes to federal lending programs so Biden won’t be able to help us.

We deserve a government that protects us and uses our tax dollars to help us. Yet at the 11th hour, Mitch inserted a poison pill into the COVID relief and government funding bill, hoping to blame Dems for no COVID relief and a government shut-down if they don't support his attempt to undermine Biden's ability to help our local and state governments collect the trash, distribute vaccines, pay first responders, etc.

Trump’s war on the Constitution, our laws, and democracy itself, which he began while running for President, continued during his presidency, abetted by a GOP that feared his wrath, and became even more toxic after American voters rejected him. While reconstructing and buttressing our democratic institutions against future assaults will be long and hard, we must make clear that GOP’s seditious behavior intolerable.
