Sedition against the United States. He needs to be sanctioned. Should also be removed from Congress. There’s NO place for this in the US.Gail Jones (Los Gatos, 2020-12-22)

I'm signing because I believe that Matt Gaetz is unfit to work in Congress and for the people. His statements and actions are not only unprofessional, but un-American. He is as dangerous as his own state's governor, Ron DeSantis. Whether this petition succeeds or Gaetz is spared until his next election, he does not deserve his seat.Corey McConnaughy (Omaha, NE, 2020-12-22)

Gaetz has chosen to side with the disgusting attempt to tear democracy out of the hands of the people into the concentrated power of minority rule. He must be held accountable for his seditious activities and prevented from doing more harm than he already has.Jenefer Angell (Portland, 2020-12-22)

No one is above the law. Lawyers are meant to uphold the law, not deliberately break it as if they are a law unto themselves--such as Matt Gaetz.Tiasha Garcia (Sacramento, 2020-12-22)

Mr. Gaetz's latest transgression is one that truly warrants loss of the right to practice law in the State of Florida. In this latest episode, Mr. Gaetz willingly participated in an act of sedition, and an illegal and immoral effort to disenfranchise millions of American voters. I ask that the Bar fully investigate Mr. Gaetz’s actions, whether or not they believe themselves to have authority to discipline him at this time, and that the Bar publish its findings with respect to Mr. Gaetz’s actions and choices. I maintain that no lawyer should act in furtherance of sedition or destruction of the Constitution of the United States. Further - this man is a traitor to the USA and must not represent this country in any capacity which he would as a member of the Unites States BARDonna Dillavou (Schaumburg, 2020-12-22)

I was surprised to learn that Gaetz wasn't disbarred for his previous ethics transgressions.He has demonstrated a deeply engrained lack of respect for law and violated the FL Bar Code of Conduct repeatedly through his career. He has not learned, and its this writer's opinion that he will not learn or change his behavior. From his DUI to his public support of efforts to undermine the 2020 election, it is believed that his continued admission to the FL Bar reflects poorly on the Florida Bar.
If the Code of Conduct isn't enforced after repeated transgressions, what positive effect could the Code of Conduct have?
If this were his first violation, it would be within reason to withhold sanction, despite the seriousness of the offense. The reality of the situation is more serious. Mr. Matthew Gaetz's pattern of violations suggests a continued and increasing disregard for the Code of Conduct.
Many thanks,
Andrew B

Matt Gaetz has multiple ethics violations, as well as deeply disturbing character flaws. He knowingly intimidated witnesses during Donald J. Trump's impeachment inquiry, and is currently committing seditious acts in his attempts to undermine the 2020 General Election. As a veteran, I cannot, and will not watch silently, as my Oath to the U.S. Constitution is trampled upon by treasonous bureaucrats. My oath has no expiration date.Leonardo Fierro Fuentealba (Raleigh, 2020-12-22)
