Firstname, we know you have an actual name — it's John. And

that you [ [link removed] ]add your name calling on Congress to support the investigation
into Brett Kavanaugh.

We want impeachment. To get there, we must first have an investigation.
This is path that we must follow to ensure that Brett Kavanaugh is held
accountable for his gross misconduct and lies — [ [link removed] ]and how you can take
action to ensure justice is served.
John—
Over the weekend, additional damning evidence came to light regarding
Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s history of sexual abuse and
assault, adding weight to what we already know: Kavanaugh repeatedly lied
under oath.^1
The New York Times published the details of two separate accounts of
sexual assault, the details of which were not appropriately investigated
by the FBI during his confirmation hearings.^2
In fact, Trump’s White House and Senate Republicans expressly instructed
the FBI not to conduct a proper investigation — even when witnesses
directly contacted them in hopes of securing justice.^3
And then, Mitch McConnell went out of his way to hide huge pieces of
Kavanugh’s past — from his true beliefs on Roe v. Wade during his time in
the Bush administration to the multiple, credible allegations of sexual
assault against him — by refusing to release millions of pages of
documents that deserve public scrutiny.^4
We believe that a thorough investigation of these documents would prove
Brett Kavanaugh committed perjury — which is an impeachable offense.
That’s why we are calling on Congress to support the Chairman of the House
Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jerry Nadler, in reviewing documents that would
confirm Brett Kavanaugh lied under oath during his confirmation hearings.
[ [link removed] ]Add your name to call on Congress to support the investigation into
Kavanaugh.
Here is the path that we must follow to ensure that Brett Kavanaugh is
held accountable for his gross misconduct and lies:
1. We must ensure that Trump does not block the release of all documents
related to Brett Kavanaugh’s time in the White House that are in the
possession of the National Archives. Rep. Nadler has begun this review
process, but members of Congress must keep up the drumbeat by fighting
for a full release in the press and refusing to let this miscarriage
of justice — or the negligent FBI investigation — be swept under the
rug.

2. Prove Kavanaugh committed perjury: A thorough investigation by the
Judiciary Committee of these documents, compared to Brett Kavanaugh’s
testimony during his confirmation hearings will reveal Kavanaugh lied
under oath to the American people.
↓
3. Begin impeachment proceedings in the House of Representatives that
culminate in a conviction in the Senate.
Kavanaugh’s confirmation was rushed through by Senate Republicans, who
(rightly) feared what would come to light if the FBI conducted a thorough
examination of the allegations against him.
These latest revelations only reaffirm what we knew then: Brett Kavanaugh
should have never been confirmed to the Supreme Court. His lies have been
aided and abetted by Donald Trump, Trump’s corrupt Department of Justice,
Senate Republicans, and Mitch McConnell.
It is in our hands to restore the integrity of our democracy. We know it
won’t be a short or an easy process. But it is one of the most important
battles we’ve ever faced as a nation — and we must undertake it together.

investigation and help us begin the process to impeach.
