Demand that Republicans speak up. JENNIFER WEXTON.


David,

Over the past two days, Donald Trump has tweeted and repeated a series of bigoted, ignorant comments about four of my colleagues in Congress -- all women of color. He said that they should “go back” to their home countries.

This is the language of a vile, petty man who feels threatened by diversity. But I know that our diversity is our strength, and I’m proud that our House caucus reflects the many faces and voices of America.

There has been almost total silence from Republicans about Trump’s latest display of racism. That has to change now.

Join me to demand that national Republicans immediately denounce Trump’s bigotry. We need to draw a line on this behavior, once and for all.
Trump’s long shown us who he is. He showed us when he called Mexicans rapists and criminals. He showed us again when he said immigrants come from “shithole countries.”

And he showed us again yesterday when targeting congresswomen of color who -- by the way -- are Americans.

My Republican colleagues need to speak up. Otherwise, we must assume that they agree with Donald Trump.

Add your name to my petition right now. We need as many signatures as possible to keep the pressure on.

Thank you,

Jennifer
