Call Sen. Schumer and Sen. Gillibrand today: Protect the Trump-Russia criminal investigation

Call today along with tens of thousands of others to demand Congress protect Mueller's Trump-Russia investigation from White House interference

Dear MoveOn member,

There's finally bipartisan momentum in Congress to rein in Donald Trump's sabotage of the Russia investigation.

After months of Republican obstruction, Republican Senators Lindsey Graham and Thom Tillis are both sponsoring legislation to limit Trump's authority to fire special counsel Robert Mueller, who's leading the Trump-Russia criminal investigation.1

There are already four Democratic Senator co-sponsors between these bills: Richard Blumenthal, Cory Booker, Chris Coons, and Sheldon Whitehouse.2 Let's get more to sign on and urge their Republican colleagues to join them!

Call Sen. Schumer and Sen. Gillibrand today to ask them to co-sponsor the bills to protect the Trump-Russia investigation.

Here's where to call:

  • Sen. Schumer - (202) 224-6542
  • Sen. Gillibrand - (202) 224-4451

You can say: "I want Sens. Schumer and Gillibrand to co-sponsor legislation to protect the Trump-Russia criminal investigation from political obstruction. Please support and help pass the Graham-Booker (S.1735) and Tillis-Coons (S.1741) bills to limit Donald Trump's authority to fire special counsel Robert Mueller."

Then click here to report your call for other MoveOn members to see!

As the investigation heats up, so do the chances that Trump will try to obstruct it by firing special counsel Mueller. Let's stop him before he has the chance.

Thanks for all you do.
