Email: [Governor’s Name]—Your State Must Take Action to Defend the Courts
Dear Governor [Last Name],
Trump and Vance are actively dismantling judicial authority, and [State Name] must take a stand—now. If the federal government ignores the courts, then the states become the last line of defense for democracy.
I am calling on you to take immediate action to protect [State Name] from federal overreach and lawless governance. If Trump and Vance refuse to comply with judicial rulings, our state must refuse to comply with them.
Here’s what I expect from your administration immediately:
Publicly reject any federal order that ignores or bypasses judicial review.
Use the full power of the state’s legal system to challenge unconstitutional federal actions.
Ensure that no state resources or law enforcement agencies enforce unlawful executive mandates.
We cannot afford to “wait and see.” The moment a president is allowed to ignore the courts, the Constitution is dead. [State Name] must lead in resisting this attack on democracy before it is too late.
I urge you to take a strong, public stance—[State Name] will not comply with an authoritarian regime.
I—and millions of others—will be watching.
Sincerely,[Your Name][Your City, State][Your Contact Info]
