Charles Rangel, Your Legacy Should Not Be Speaker John Boehner
Sign Now
We, the undersigned, respectfully urge you to end your re-election campaign.
You are certainly entitled to defend yourself from the serious ethics charges filed by the House ethics committee. But you should do that as a private citizen, not as a Member of Congress.
You should not imperil the future of the country, and the Democratic Party, for the sake of your own power.
You are now the face of Washington corruption. Your candidacy could cost Democrats the House of Representatives - and elect John Boehner as Speaker instead of Nancy Pelosi.
If that happens, the Republican Congress will block any increase in the minimum wage, give huge tax breaks for the wealthy and big corporations, fund the occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq forever, and block any climate change legislation.
These disastrous results should not be Charles Rangels legacy.
Please put the welfare of the district, the state, the nation, and the planet ahead of your own career.

You've served well. Now do this for the Democratic Party so you don't become fodder for the Republicans
