To: Senator Pat Toomey

Country over Party - Vote for a fair impeachment trial

We the undersigned Citizens of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania demand that you honor your oath to the Constitution and publicly commit to support a full and fair impeachment trial with actual witnesses and documents. We expect you to follow up this commitment with an actual vote in favor of following the same impeachment rules used in the past impeachment trials which clearly allow for witnesses and documentary evidence. Voting present or abstaining are not acceptable courses of action. If no Motion comes to the floor we would expect you to introduce such a motion. It is not only Constitutionally imperative that you do so but it would be in accord with 70% of your constituents who all want a full trial and not the sham procedure that your majority leader is proposing.

Why is this important?

Senator Toomey has been a party line Trump supporter. He has never detailed what he considers to be an impeachable offense. He has been asked by many and parrots the talking points of the GOP. He is adept at avoiding publicity will not hold town halls and behind the scenes has continued to support Trump and his agenda. He believes he is safe if he stays quiet and follows the Republican Majority. As a Senator from Pennsylvania he should reflect our views not those of McConnell and Trump. We must let Senator Toomey know that he cannot hide in the Republican Majority. We expect more than appearances at the Farm Show and sampling milkshakes. To every Citizen of Pennsylvania endorsing this petition let Senator Toomey know that abdication of his Constitutional duty will result in every signee of this petition voting against him in 2022.
