The basic and fundamental responsibilities of our elected officials are to represent the will of the people—to uphold the tenets of our Constitution and respect our democratic institutions. You have betrayed the trust of Colorado voters by helping incite violence against the body you were elected to, a body designed to serve us. By endorsing the President’s unsubstantiated and repeatedly debunked, discredited, and false claims of voter fraud, you encouraged and tacitly endorsed the actions of these insurrectionists and threatened the basic foundation of our democracy.

The violence in Washington D.C. last week by supporters of President Donald Trump was a terrible offense against the rights of every American to live in a free and fair democracy. It was an attack on our country and on our people. You and President Trump attempted to overturn the November 2020 elections after dozens of judges, the U.S. Supreme Court, and even the President’s own Attorney General rejected the false and outrageous claims that have fomented the violence we saw.

The 1/6/21 attack which you incited and directly encouraged was a blatant assault on our country. Your role in the violent attack on our democracy makes you unworthy and undeserving of the honor of representing Colorado in Congress. You violated the oath of office you took just days before the attack. Therefore, we demand your immediate resignation or expulsion and an end to your fanning of the flames that caused the 1/6/21 attack at once.
