Tell Congress: BLOCK Trump's $400 million bribe

U.S. Congress

It’s official: President Trump has accepted a $400 million luxury jet from Qatar – a plane he plans to use as Air Force One, and then keep for himself. [1]

He said yes to this bribe because he’s used to getting a free pass, even when his corruption is this obvious, this outrageous, and this illegal.

But we’re drawing a line in the sand: Trump can’t pick and choose what laws apply to him.

Now every single member of Congress has a decision to make: Will they stand up for the Constitution and REJECT this clear bribe – or co-sign Trump’s corruption?

Tell Congress: REJECT Trump’s shady plane deal from Qatar and hold this administration accountable to working for We The People – not the highest bidder.

Members of congress must use their authority to block Trump from accepting the $400 million luxury plane Qatar is gifting to him.

The Constitution’s Emoluments Clause forbids presidents from accepting these sorts of “gifts” for obvious reasons. Congress has the tools to block this bribe, from amending must-pass defense bills to halting nominees.

Congress must REJECT this shady plane deal and hold this administration accountable to working for We The People – not the highest bidder.
