Resign Cathy McMorris Rodgers

Resign Cathy McMorris Rodgers

The Issue

Cathy McMorris Rodgers has finally gone too far. Her endorsement of conspiracy theories around the election fraudulence helped incite a Trumpist mob that attacked the US Capitol and are the actions of a traitor, not a Representative. 

McMorris-Rodgers has not learned anything from the horrific events of January 6th when American democracy was under siege from rioters who were aiming to hurt and kill members of Congress & the Vice President, when seditionists set up a gallows outside the Capitol building, and when self-styled patriots attacked it with what appears to have been some level of militant planning.

While she is currently offering disingenuous calls for "unity" to calm the fires of disagreement, we cannot forget that McMorris-Rodgers has been one of the chief arsonists during the Trump Administration in the House, repeating his lies.

On January 13th she continued this legacy when she was the only representative from Washington to vote against impeachment & on the side of Trump. She claimed, "I do not believe his words constitute an incitement of violence." Other Republicans condemned Trump for his actions, but Cathy did not. She chose a fascist over democracy, her constituents, & her country. 

McMorris Rodgers could do the right thing now and resign. Eastern Washington deserves better.
