It’s not enough

Share article

To the editor:

It’s not enough to complain to a neighbor about the erosion of our constitutional rights and the dismantling of our social safety net, environmental laws and government agencies protecting our health. It is not enough to protest in the streets, even though it is a start and builds a stronger coalition of engaged activists.

To meet the moment of this Constitutional Crisis and America’s slide into authoritarianism and fascism, true patriots need to defeat the politicians who are not following their constitutional duty to defend the Constitution, and replace them with people who will represent We the People, not the billionaire, libertarian elite.

Engage now with Lean Left VT (leanleftvt.org) and local chapters of Indivisible (indivisible.org) to learn the tools needed to elect democratic and progressive candidates in the critical Swing States. Even one hour a week activism that can be done at home can make the difference to protect our constitutional Republic.
