PELOSI GIVES IMPEACHMENT GREEN LIGHT


Call Conyers You did it!!

Your letters and phone calls have finally pressured congress to act on impeachment. This morning Pelosi told the media that impeachment hearings may begin in the Judiciary and Kucinich introduced his new impeachment resolution this afternoon. Kucinich also held a press conference at which he said that what he wants is an opportunity to present his proposals to the Judiciary Committee. So, now it's time to push this movement through the goal line. We need to ensure that Conyers is going to follow through. Let's make sure that Committee Chairman John Conyers grants this request. Phone him now at 202-225-3951.


After Downing Street -- If you're able to speak with Conyers or his staff at any length, please remind them that Bush and Cheney and members of their administration are refusing to comply with numerous subpoenas and even contempt citations, as well as refusing to answer questions by claiming "executive privilege." During an impeachment hearing, there is no executive privilege. The Judiciary Committee should hold an impeachment hearing of Bush and Cheney on refusal to comply with oversight. It's the fastest way to justice and the only chance of establishing any oversight.
