Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Unity with insurrectionists after the Civil War led to an end to Reconstruction. Unity with segregationists during Jim Crow led to filibusters of Civil Rights bills. If we are to have unity now, let it be unity for justice rather than excusing white supremacists and insurrection. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

Accountability is essential. The House just impeached Trump for inciting an insurrection. This is unprecedented, but so is a president urging a mob to attack the Capitol to keep himself in power. McConnell needs to bring the Senate back to begin the trial, NOW. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I was in the Capitol on Jan 6th. I was there for the insurrection Trump incited. I saw the damage—not just the physical damage to our Capitol, but also the spiritual damage to the foundations of our democracy. The president must be held accountable for this sedition. — PolitiTweet.org
