In reply to the discussion: Poll: Where does your Member of Congress stand on opening an impeachment inquiry? [View all]MineralMan
(146,924 posts)1. Mine is Betty McCollum, and she's a co-sponsor
of the 2018 articles of impeachment. Here's what she said recently:
May 29, 2019 Press Release
Congresswoman Betty McCollum (DFL-Minn.) released the following statement today:
"Congress has a duty to defend the Constitution and protect the American people from the corruption and deceit that infects this White House. It is very clear that President Trump is engaging in a cover-up, obstructing of justice, and betraying his oath of office. I fully expect the responsible House committees to expedite their investigations and, as soon as possible, formally draft articles of impeachment. It is my belief that the House of Representatives has an absolute obligation under the Constitution to hold a president accountable for illegal conduct, and that includes Mr. Trump."
