[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition if you agree Donald Trump should NOT be granted
"absolute immunity" by the U.S. Supreme Court!

Dear MoveOn member,

Last Thursday, a jury of everyday Americans affirmed that Donald Trump is
not above the law. He was found GUILTY on all 34 charges for falsifying
documents. He did this to cover up a conspiracy to deceive voters ahead of
the 2016 election. This makes the leader of the Republican Party and the
party's presidential candidate a felon.^1

Now, Donald Trump needs to be held accountable for all of his alleged
crimes. But the Supreme Court is standing in the way of the speedy trial
that we deserve.

The Supreme Court has yet to release their decision on if Trump has
"absolute immunity" from prosecution for any of the crimes he committed
while president, including his role in attempting to overthrow the 2020
election. The right-wing-packed court is protecting Trump from further
accountability by hearing this case in the first place.^2 By stalling
these trials, the court is preventing the American people from finding out
the truth about Trump's attempt to dismantle our democracy.

[ [link removed] ]Will you sign the petition to demand the Supreme Court deny Trump
"absolute immunity" and do it NOW? There is absolutely no time to waste.

Nobody is above the law, including ex-President Donald Trump. The Supreme
Court must rule against him immediately, denying Trump full, absolute
immunity.

Trump will exhaust every option to avoid accountability for the crimes
he's committed. The Supreme Court should not play into Trump's tactics to
postpone accountability and justice. Since they have decided to take
Trump's appeal, they must rule against him quickly, denying Trump full,
absolute immunity. They've already taken too long, increasing the risk
that the Department of Justice trial might not occur until after the
November election.

The Supreme Court has proven time and time again that they can rule with
expediency, and we demand they do so now. Waiting any longer is a choice
on their part to assist Trump's plan of evading all accountability ahead
of the election. The truth is, the highest court in our country never
should have accepted Trump's bogus immunity appeal, after a lower court
denied him "absolute immunity." They must reject this undemocratic claim
and do so immediately. There is no time to waste—our democracy depends on
it. [ [link removed] ]Join more than 100,000 MoveOn members and add your name to the

If a jury of everyday people who were facing intimidation and threats were
brave enough to convict Trump of his heinous crimes, then the Supreme
Court of the United States can rule against the former president—and make
it clear that he doesn't get to escape his attempt to overthrow the
election just because he was in office.

Trump’s recent conviction of falsifying business records in order to
influence the 2016 election is just one of his many attempts at lying to
the American people in order to gain power. Enough is enough.

The Supreme Court must not play into his baseless legal arguments and let
Trump get away with hiding the truth from voters again. They must rule on
the side of the American people and our democracy.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition now! Donald Trump must be stopped. He and any other
president should not have "absolute immunity" from prosecution for his
crimes and attacks on our democracy.

Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn's work? The MAGA movement's book bans have forced
teachers and librarians across the country to remove books from their
shelves and censor what young people can learn. MoveOn is fighting back,
including by filling a "Banned Bookmobile" with books that the far right
has banned and driving it to key cities and towns to raise the visibility
of book bans, hand out banned books for free, and bring people together to
stop censorship. To keep up the fight against book bans and the MAGA
politicians who support them, we need your help.
