Investigate Sen. Ron Johnson for January 6th!
According to new revelations during the January 6th hearings, Senator Ron Johnson may have delivered a fraudulent slate of electors to VP Pence in a bid to help Trump steal the 2020 election. Congress must investigate these damning allegations to ensure Johnson’s actions have consequences.
Why is this important?
During the Jan. 6th hearings, we learned that a US senator may have set out a roadmap to overturn the election — and so far, he’s getting away with it. We can’t let that happen.
Senator Ron Johnson’s staff delivered a fake slate of electors to former Vice President Pence so that Pence could overturn President Biden’s victory, a former White House aide alleged last week. If the allegations prove to be true, Sen. Johnson took an active role to overturn the election, potentially overthrowing democracy in America. He must be held accountable.
Congress must investigate Sen. Ron Johnson for his active role in overturning the 2020 election!
We already knew the Wisconsin senator was doing Trump’s dirty work at the expense of our democracy. Just weeks before the January 6th insurrection, Johnson held a congressional hearing on election fraud, perpetuating the right-wing conspiracy that the election had been stolen.Then, Johnson joined nine other senators in calling for an “an emergency 10-day audit of the election.”
But we didn’t know just how far Ron Johnson was willing to go to undermine the US electoral apparatus. Now that there is reason to believe Johnson delivered fake electors to Pence, Congress needs to conduct an investigation. Otherwise, the message to the far-right will be clear: there are no consequences for trying to subvert free and fair elections.
