Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY or ZIP CODE].
I’m calling to urge Representative Fitzpatrick to be the first Republican House Representative to publicly support the impeachment of President Trump before November.
I am concerned for the midterm elections as Trump’s administration has previously denied election results, made accusations of fraud, pushed states to redistrict, and even refused to swear in a newly elected official for several weeks.
Representative Fitzpatrick’s membership in the Problem Solvers Caucus has shown that he’s willing to reach across the aisle to come to a middle ground to do what’s best for his constituents. Please let him know that history remembers the courageous.
Thank you.

Dear Representative Fitzpatrick,
My name is [NAME], and I am a constituent from [CITY or ZIP CODE].
I am writing to urge you to be the first Republican House Representative to publicly support the impeachment of President Trump before November.
I am concerned for the midterm elections as Trump’s administration has previously denied election results, made accusations of fraud, pushed states to redistrict, and even refused to swear in a newly elected official for several weeks.
you have earned a reputation for independence and sound judgement. Your support for the Justice Department and your concern for how it’s currently functioning demonstrate your integrity. The recent efforts by Trump to use the Department of Justice as his personal law firm to prosecute his enemies is disturbing, and a breach of power. We ask you, as a former FBI agent and federal prosecutor, to vote in support of impeachment, to ensure the continuation of the separation of powers between the judicial and executive branches.
As a member of the Problem Solvers Caucus, you’ve shown that you’re willing to reach across the aisle to come to a middle ground to do what’s best for your constituents. We need you and the caucus to come together now to hold the president accountable for his breaches of the Constitution.
I understand this is not an easy task, but history remembers the courageous. You have already demonstrated that you are that kind of person. Put country over party. Make history. Your constituents and your country are counting on you.
Sincerely,
[NAME]
[CITY or ZIP CODE]
