Four Voting Rights Victories That Give Us Hope
Article
President-elect Trump just announced on social media he is nominating election denier and far-right ideologue Rep. Matt Gaetz for Attorney General.
If you’re familiar with Matt Gaetz, you already know he belongs nowhere near the Department of Justice, except as a defendant.
Here’s what you need to know about Matt Gaetz, and why he simply cannot be allowed to be confirmed as Attorney General:
Attorney General of the United States is one of the executive branch’s most important roles – overseeing the Department of Justice, upholding the rule of law, and enforcing civil and voting rights protections.
We already knew the Department of Justice was going to be on Trump’s target list – he swore revenge after they did their jobs and held him to the same laws every other American follows. But Matt Gaetz is, without exaggeration, one of the most extreme choices Trump could have made. We can’t let it stand.
Here’s the good news: with a record as tarnished and controversial as Matt Gaetz’s, Senate confirmation is anything but a done deal. We need to speak out IMMEDIATELY to demand Senators put country before party and stop him.
