One letter from Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead to Irene Jago dated April 29, 1974. Moorhead replies to Jago's letter against the impeachment of President Nixon. He writes, "I think that it is most important that clubs such as yours stand firmly behind the President and be willing to fight off the effects of the radicals in the Far Left who are trying to use this opportunity to destroy conservative government in the United States."
