Mike Johnson won't seat a duly elected Democrat. How to respond (INDIVISIBLE) Repost for "findability" in Activist HQ

It has been a full month since Arizonans elected Adelita Grijalva to the US House in a special election, but Speaker Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in. He’s undermining democracy and denying 812,000 Arizonans their constitutional right to representation in Congress.

And here’s the kicker: Grijalva would be the decisive 218th signature to force a vote on releasing the Epstein Files -- something Johnson desperately wants to prevent.

This isn’t just partisan games. It’s part of Republicans’ Epstein Cover-up.

IF YOU HAVE A GOP REPRESENTATIVE:

Email your Republican Member of Congress now. Urge them to publicly call on Mike Johnson to seat Adelita Grijalva and stop hiding the Epstein Files.

Refusing to seat a duly elected Member of Congress -- all to help Trump hide evidence in the Epstein case -- is a massive scandal, and we need to make sure it’s treated like one!

Vulnerable House Republicans don’t want to be seen aiding and abetting the Epstein Cover-up. So far, their unconscionable choice not to seat Grijalva has largely flown under the radar, but we can turn up the heat.

Please help get Adelita Grijalva sworn in ASAP by emailing your Republican representative, if you have one. And use our social media toolkit to sound the alarm online!

In solidarity,
Indivisible Team

3. Unfortunately, not sure it makes much difference if the House is shut down. I had hoped Dems would show up every morning

during the shutdown ready to go to work, but apparently not.
