Verantwortung der Trump-Regierung

Donald Trump and his administration repeatedly try to undermine our democracy's core values and attack our rights. During this presidency, Common Cause will continue to take bold action to hold the Trump Administration accountable.

Donald Trump hat schamloses Fehlverhalten begangen – vom Machtmissbrauch und der Behinderung der Justiz über die Einmischung in unsere Wahlen bis hin zur Anstiftung zum tödlichen Angriff auf das US-Kapitol am 6. Januar 2021.

Common Cause hat sich bei jeder Gelegenheit für die Rechenschaftspflicht der Trump-Administration eingesetzt und seine beiden Amtsenthebungsverfahren unterstützt. Ziel dieser Bemühungen ist es, klarzustellen, dass niemand, auch nicht der aktuelle und der ehemalige Präsident, über dem Gesetz steht.

Petition: FIRE Elon Musk

Elon Musk is trying to run our government like it’s one of his companies. Our democracy deserves better.

We demand the immediate firing of Elon Musk from ANY position of influence within our government. Musk’s dangerous influence must end now.

It is time to restore power to the American people and ensure that decisions are made by those accountable to the people, not the wealthy elite.

Tell Congress: Protect birthright citizenship

Trump’s executive order attempting to end birthright citizenship would endanger millions of people born in this country and permanently reshape what it means to be an American.

The 14th Amendment is clear – and legal experts say Trump would likely need to pass a constitutional amendment through Congress to overrule it.

Congress must step up and REFUSE to help Trump shred our Constitution. We urge you to protect birthright citizenship and our 14th Amendment today.

Mit Ihrer finanziellen Unterstützung können wir etwas bewirken, indem wir Macht zur Rechenschaft ziehen und die Demokratie zu stärken.

House Republicans’ Spending Plan is a Power Grab for Trump and Musk – Democrats Must Say No

Explainer: Trump’s Executive Order on Controlling Independent Agencies

Independent agencies are meant to serve the American people free from political influence. Presidential control of these agencies will get in the way of their crucial missions, and let Wall Street crime go unchecked, drive up prices, and open our elections up to cyber-attacks.
