PETITION: Tell Speaker Johnson to do his job
Today marks 36 days since Adelita Grijalva overwhelmingly won her election to serve the people of Arizona’s 7th Congressional District. Today also marks the longest delay for swearing in a special House election winner in decades, since House Speaker Johnson has refused to administer her oath of office and, in the process, violated his oath and job requirements.
It’s past time, and Speaker Johnson’s delay is yet another attack on our democracy.
As Jewish Americans, we cannot stand by while Republicans dismantle our democracy to hide their corruption. Our tradition, our history, and our values demand that we act when democracy is threatened. By adding your signature to our petition, you can send a clear message to Mike Johnson and Republicans that the Jewish community demands transparency and accountability in our government.
Forward this email to your friends, family, and networks. Remind them that our democracy works when the American people have representation and every voice is heard.
Thank you for standing up for democracy.
In solidarity,
Sam Crystal
Chief of Staff, Jewish Democratic Council of America
