MoveOn Statement on Colorado State Supreme Court Disqualifying Trump

Washington, D.C.Following the Colorado State Supreme Court disqualifying twice-impeached and criminally indicted former President Trump from the ballot, MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting released the following statement: 

“As MoveOn has said many times before, Donald Trump is not above the law. Tonight’s decision from the Colorado State Supreme Court proves that there are consequences to undermining our democracy and betraying our country. MoveOn and its members have been on the frontlines calling for Trump’s disqualification for inciting an insurrection, and we will continue to hold Trump and MAGA extremists accountable for decimating our democracy and fundamental freedoms.” 

More than 443,000 members and counting have signed onto a petition calling to disqualify Trump from holding public office, under the Constitution’s 14th Amendment.
