Reject the Coverup Rally – Jesse Littlewood, Vice President of Campaigns

We rallied because a Senate trial without witnesses is not a trial, but a cover-up and because the evidence is clear that Trump put his personal political interests over our constitution and his oath of office.

Jesse Littlewood, Vice President of States kicked off the night. Said Littlewood, "Here in Boston and in solidarity with 280 sister events across 46 states we are saying, with one voice: WE REJECT THE COVER UP."

Kristina Mensik, nuestra directora adjunta en Common Cause Massachusetts, dice que debemos "seguir construyendo un movimiento que luche por elecciones justas y seguras, reglas éticas de sentido común, límites a la influencia de los grandes donantes de campaña y otras reformas para asegurarnos de que esto nunca vuelva a suceder".
