Letter to the editor: Stop Steve Bannon

It's been nine days since Donald Trump announced Steve Bannon--known white supremacist, anti-Semite, and domestic abuser--as his pick for White House chief strategist, and Republican members of Congress have been silent. But this week, they are home and away from Washington. That means if people in their state show they reject Bannon, Congress members will listen. You can help by writing a short letter to the editor--politicians care deeply about the opinion pages.

Write in your own voice and use these points to make your case:

  • People all over, including your constituents, oppose Steve Bannon's appointment. Why aren't you one of the lawmakers who is trying to stop a rabid racist and misogynist from getting to the White House? 
  • No decent person, Republican or Democrat, should allow Bannon in the highest level of government. Stop putting party over decency.
  • You have every power to stop Bannon from reaching the White House, starting with publicly denouncing him.
  • If you represent the people, speak up now--denounce Donald Trump's appointment of known white supremacist and domestic abuser, Steve Bannon.
