Twitter Employee Who Turned Off Donald Trump’s Account Deserves Key to the City

Bullying, doxing, racist speech, and instigation of nuclear war. Those are just a few of the many reasons why the American people think Donald Trump should be banned from Twitter. Yet, despite repeated violations of its terms of service, Twitter continues to find weak justifications for allowing Trump to remain on the site.

This week, one brave Twitter contract employee finally did what we've all been asking for. On his or her last day of work at the San Francisco-based company, the contractor deactivated Trump's account. For eleven solid minutes, Twitter was a better place.

This person is an American hero who deserves to be honored. That's why we're calling on San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee to give him or her the keys to the city.

Twitter has more than enough reasons to take down Trump's account, but it continuously prioritizes generating clicks over public safety. We need to show the company that removing Trump from Twitter is the right thing to do by honoring this now former contractor.

Please sign this petition asking Mayor Ed Lee to give the person who deactivated Donald Trump's account the keys to the city!
