Sign the petition against Mike Lee

It just might make a difference

After a Minnesota state representative was shot and killed along with her husband, and a Minnesota state senator was shot alongside his wife, Sen. Mike Lee, MAGA-Utah, chose to make light of a political assassination and an attempted political assassination with social media posts like this:

He has since deleted his posts, but the Interwebs is forever, Mike, and so is my memory. Deseret News editorial board said:

The tweets were unacceptable for anyone, let alone from a member of the Senate. It revealed a lack of compassion for both victims and their loved ones and cast a poor light on Utah, the state Sen. Lee represents. Removing the tweets was a start. An apology and recognition of the mistake should follow.

Nope. It’s too late for an apology, which wouldn’t mean much, anyway. It’s time for Lee to go, and now you can do more than just type that in social medial posts. You can let him know that by signing this petition from a Utah-based non-profit advocacy group with an impressive record of helping Utah off-load bad politicians.

This is not what Utah or the U.S. is about. We can do better.

And tell all your friends.
