What Illinois Reps are Tweeting about Impeachment

If there was any lingering doubt that @realDonaldTrump needed to be impeached, the @HouseJudiciary hearing has eviscerated it.

I’m more convinced now than ever that this President should be impeached and that he is threat to our democracy and national security. #ImpeachmentVote https://t.co/XMSXPSeQ1M

When these Articles of Impeachment reach the House Floor, I will vote YES. No one is above the law and the President must be held accountable for his abuse of power & obstruction. https://t.co/x0snrd8DnS

Members of Congress take an oath to defend the Constitution. It's our duty to protect our democracy—a job I take very seriously. President Trump violated the Constitution and no matter how he tries to spin it, he must be held accountable. No one is above the law. https://t.co/YvNaUfgc2g

Constitutional scholars made clear: the President’s actions represent a continuing threat to our democracy. If these actions are not impeachable, nothing is. #DefendOurDemocracy pic.twitter.com/gEoENEeiz7

After reading, in full, the House Intelligence Report, House Judiciary Report, the Articles of Impeachment, and hearing from constituents, I have decided to take the solemn step to vote to impeach the President for abusing the powers of his office for his own personal gain.

.@HouseIntel’s report presents the evidence we have gathered in the #ImpeachmentInquiry already. I explained to @donlemon last night that while the investigation continues, the evidence of wrongdoing is already overwhelming. pic.twitter.com/3KRJXwqeoF

The past 3 yrs Pelosi & DC Dems have done all they could to undo the 2016 election. After endless investigations & partisan inquiries yielded scant evidence, they still chose to move forward. They're motivated by politics not principles. I will oppose the articles of impeachment.

More subpoenas have been issued this Congress than House bills signed into law. We need bipartisan solutions, not impeachment. pic.twitter.com/eZ76OqBt4w

IL Dem @RepCheri who says she's reviewing articles of #impeachment, calls on Illinoisans to read the evidence presented for themselves.

Speaker Pelosi said impeachment requires something so compelling and bipartisan.

Yet, the only bipartisan part of the process was a vote to oppose moving forward with impeaching @realDonaldTrump.

This process failed to meet the Democrats’ own criteria.https://t.co/sBFKsfLurQ
