Elizabeth Bender Thomas Location: Submitted At: 9:12pm 01-19-21 Thank you Lakewood City Council for passing this resolution. Charlie Hargrave Location: Submitted At: 7:36pm 01-19-21 Unless Council has passed a Resolution urging other political entities to bring to justice the people that have been rioting across the country most of 2020, this seems hypocritical. Unless Council has passed a Resolution rebuking elected officials that mislead the public with false claims of election fraud in 2016, this seems hypocritical. Unless Council has seen evidence that President Trump demanded, instructed or encouraged the people illegally entering the Capital it seems both UnAmerican and seditious to call on the Senate to convict President Trump. Thank you, Charlie Hargrave Colleen Cronin Location: Submitted At: 6:25pm 01-19-21 All insurrectionists must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and Donald Trump must be summarily disqualified from seeking public office, or any position in the public trust, ever again. His unlawful actions, and those of his followers, must be publicly denounced in a bipartisan way at all levels of government.

Angelina Steiner Location: Submitted At: 5:25pm 01-19-21 I am in full support of this resolution and implore Council to unanimously support Democracy and its people and vote for this resolution.

Our society's descent into authoritarianism for me means that I expect persecution in the future for being who I am. We have seen this before in Nazi Germany wherein 100,000 homosexuals were killed in concentration camps after the fall of German democracy, and in modern day Russia where LGBTQ+ people are targeted by vigilantes or unlawfully imprisoned by regional governments. Please stand up for democracy, the truth, and the rule of law, and against violence and fascism before it's too late. Please hold Donald Trump accountable for his incitement of armed insurrection on January 6 and encourage other public officials to take the events on 1/6 as seriously as you do so we can begin to unify and heal our democracy. NORA KATZENBERGER Location: Submitted At: 4:18pm 01-19-21 I am writing in support of the resolution to condemn the seditious acts that occurred in the Capitol Building on January 6th, to encourage authorities to bring to justice all who were involved, and to rebuke elected officials who incited the riots and used their public platform to question the free and fair election that took place on November 3, 2020. My vote and that of every US Citizen is sacred, and our elected officials swear an oath to protect our
