One letter from Juanita M. Jones to Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead dated November 6, 1973. Jones supports the impeachment of President Nixon and writes, "What are we a bunch of sheep permitting a President to remain in office who arrogantly ignores his oath of office; who places himself above the law; who places in position of authority people who have proved to be, almost without exception, either incompetent or dishonest; whose word cannot be trusted."

Moorhead, Carlos J., 1922-2011
Nixon, Richard M. (Richard Milhous), 1913-1994
