Last night, I sat down and created this letter that I am sending out to all of my republican Pennsylvania representatives. I want my representatives to know that they lost my support and I am leaving the republican party. I have family members and a handful of friends sending out this same letter.
See below the letter. I figured I'd share it with you all so other PA residents can send the same thing to their rep. Just look them up on ballotopia and fill in the blanks. And add your own things too! I am far from a professional writer. Just wanted to give you a template and save you some time.
Dear Representative ________,
I am a resident of ___________ and one of the constituents you serve. I have been a registered republican for _____ years and for the most part voted straight GOP.
In 2016 I was an ecstatic supporter of President Donald J. Trump. His America first policies and rhetoric was a breath of fresh air to the middle class like myself, and he represents who I am and what I want this country to become. It should be no surprise to you that I voted for Mr. Trump once again in 2020.
I voted for you in ______ and I have been nothing but disappointed in you and your party’s leadership of not only my State, but my Country.
You and your party stood by while illegal and unconstitutional changes were made to our state’s voting system. Our republican state legislature buckled as they passed an omnibus bill that included said changes to our election laws which our Democrat governor signed immediately. Our secretary of State and Attorney General went around the Pennsylvania constitution and straight to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to solidify this new election process. We now have a mail in voting system that requires no signatures, no signature comparisons, no postal date, and a deadline that was extended by three additional days after the election.
As this bill was approved, I heard and saw no action taken by you or your party to fight these radical voting law changes.
Even worse, our republican poll watchers were kicked out of ballot counting centers in Philadelphia, Dominion voting systems all around the county experienced a multitude of problems, and we have hundreds of troubling voter irregularity affidavits.
We the people only wanted one thing. A fair and honest review of the 2020 election and our Pennsylvania voting system. Once again, I saw you and your party sit on the bench and do very little. Democracy is lost when the people do not trust the voting system. I am sad to say, I no longer trust our Pennsylvania voting system.
As I write this, our first amendment is now under siege. Big tech such as Facebook, Twitter, Apple, and Google are removing conservatives by the minute. Mr. Trump, Ben Garrison, General Flynn, Sidney Powell, and multiple conservative Youtube commentators, left without a voice in the “land of the free”. This censorship didn’t just start tonight, in fact, this has been going on for years. Alex Jones was banned from these platforms in August 2018. Milo Yiannopoulos was banned as far back as 2016 for his conservative viewpoints.
You and your party have had years to stand up to big tech censorship. To do something that protects the first amendment rights of your constituents. But once again, the republicans I put my trust in did nothing.
This censorship of half of the country is dangerous to our freedom and democracy. It is the same tactics that Adolph Hitler used on his citizens once he came into power. A large portion of America can no longer share our views, share our ideas, educate others, or have a thoughtful debate on policy. We are now living in the novel 1984. If you do not agree with Big Brother, you will no longer exist online.
As of today, I rescind my allegiance to the Republican party. I will no longer vote for those who refuse to defend myself, my family, my community, or my President. You have officially lost a lifetime supporter of your party.
Starting today, I begin my campaign against you and your party to ensure you, nor any other establishment republican, are elected to your seat in your next election.
To show you the seriousness we find ourselves in, see enclosed a list of big tech censorship that has taken place within the past 24 hours. This is in no means a complete list, as the list is quickly expanding.
Donald Trump banned from Twitter. Sydney Powell banned from Twitter. Ben Garrison, political cartoonist, banned from Twitter. General Flynn banned from Twitter. Donald Trump banned from Facebook. Multiple pro-Trump pages have been banned from Facebook. Prager U Youtube channel is demonetized and is having their videos restricted. Mark Dice’s Youtube channel is having videos removed and has been demonetized for months. Liberal Hivemind has been shadow-banned from Youtube. Mr. Obvious has been shadow-banned from Youtube. Red Eagle (political commentator) has been banned from Discord. Donald Trump has been banned from Discord. Google has removed the Parler social media app from the Play store. Apple has removed the Parler social media app from the app store. Shopify E-commerce platform banned the Team Trump store. Donald Trump is banned from Twitch. Journalist Elijah Schaffer banned from Facebook and Instagram. Steve Bannon banned from Youtube Reddit banned all Donald Trump related pages. Trump campaign banned from emailing supporters by mail service provider. And worst of all, hundreds of every day American conservative citizens are banned by the hour on all of these platforms. We can no longer discuss anything about the 2020 election without a permanent ban.
