FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
January 7, 2021
Statement by UUP President Frederick E. Kowal calling for the immediate removal
of Donald J. Trump as U.S. president
“With yesterday’s seditious assault on our democracy, incited by President
Donald Trump and carried out by a riotous mob of pro-Trump supporters that
marched on and occupied the U.S. Capitol—temporarily halting the certification
of Joe Biden as the 46th U.S. president—it is imperative that our nation’s
commitment to the Constitution and the law be re-established.
“That requires the immediate removal of Donald Trump from the office of
president.
“Allowing the president to remain in office until Jan. 20 is far too dangerous
and represents an imminent threat to our democracy and, ultimately, to all
Americans.
“UUP joins the growing chorus of national leaders—including new Senate Majority
Leader Chuck Schumer—in calling for the immediate removal of Donald Trump as
president. Only then can our country begin the healing process so necessary to
bring us together as a nation indivisible.”
“UUP also calls for the immediate censure of four New York congressional
members—Chris Jacobs, Nicole Malliotakis, Elise Stefanik and Lee Zeldin—by
Congress for perpetuating the lie that the presidential election was stolen.
“Jacobs, Malliotakis, Stefanik and Zeldin joined 143 of their Republican
colleagues to do Donald Trump’s bidding by voting Jan. 6 to overturn the
legitimate election results of the 2020 presidential election—mere hours after
Trump’s horde swarmed and vandalized the Capitol.
“As educators committed to fact-based knowledge, we call on our nation’s
leaders to become responsible stewards of our Constitution and our nation,
particularly as we face a raging pandemic.”
UUP is the nation's largest higher education union, with more than 42,000
academic and professional faculty and retirees. UUP members work at 29 New York
state-operated campuses, including SUNY’s public teaching hospitals and health
sciences centers in Brooklyn, Long Island and Syracuse. It is an affiliate of
NYSUT, the American Federation of Teachers, the National Education Association,
and the
AFL-CIO.
