URGENT ACTION: CALL/FAX IMPEACHMENT MESSAGE TO RAHM
EMANUEL'S CHICAGO OFFICE
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2007
IN SUPPORT OF PDA-CHICAGO DEMONSTRATION CALLED FOR
SATURDAY, 10-20-07, HELD IN FRONT OF EMANUEL'S OFFICE
TO DEMAND HE USE HIS INFLUENCE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
TO PUT IMPEACHMENT BACK ON THE TABLE.

This is an Impeachment Support action by 'THE NATIONAL
GRASSROOTS IMPEACHMENT NETWORK'. (Originated by the
San Fernando Valley chapter of LANIC.) We encourage
all impeachment, antiwar, progressive organizations
around the country to join in this action.

The message below was drafted with the input of Mike
Kaufman of PDA-Chicago. This network defers to the
local group's decisions regarding message and timing.
Please spread the word about this national support
action. We need to flood Rahm Emanuel's office on
Friday with hundreds, if not thousands, of calls and
faxes to make clear to him that the local
demonstrators on Saturday represent a much larger
constituency. That people from around the country are
there in spirit and demand the same thing.

Dear Congressman Emanuel

As Democrats we write to you as one of our party's
leaders. You are Chair of the House Democratic Caucus
and have a great deal of influence on what happens in
this Congress. We are dismayed by your refusal to
confront the lawbreakers, the violators of our
Constitution. We wholeheartedly support the
demonstration by your constituents and other Democrats
outside you Chicago office Saturday October 20, 2007.
This demonstration led by PDA Chicago demands that you
put impeachment back on the table.

By keeping impeachment off the table, you have not
only failed your own oath of office to defend the
constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic,
but also empowered Bush and Cheney to commit more high
crimes and misdemeanors. In effect, you have put the
Democratic party in the position of co-facilitator for
the Executive Branch's ongoing dismantling of the
constitution and Bill of Rights. For that the
American people hold you accountable, not just the
people in your district and in your party. All
Americans!

It is not too late to restore the rule of law in this
country and our trust in your leadership. The remedy
to the abuses of the Bush administration is in the
constitution: Impeachment. Use it.

[Senator]
