Chellie Pingree, ME01, Democrat

I did not come to Congress to impeach a President but there is a mountain of evidence that Donald Trump used his office to solicit the interference of a foreign government in the 2020 election. 1/ #mepolitics https://t.co/6zC5l3kkD4

Jim McGovern, MA02, Democrat

The founders designed our government for a moment like this. History is testing us. The president tried to cheat in an election. He tried to cover it up and he got caught. If that isn’t impeachable conduct, I don’t know what is.

I will vote yes on both Articles of Impeachment.

Lori Trahan, MA03, Democrat

President Trump committed an impeachable act by abusing the power of his office for personal and political gain, at the expense of our national security. When he got caught, he engaged in a second impeachable offense… https://t.co/gUxfmgSzzs

Joseph Kennedy, MA04, Democrat

While House GOP throws a tantrum about impeachment, Senate GOP is openly conspiring with the White House to continue this cover-up. Yet neither is willing to defend the President’s actions. https://t.co/gQAPFTuhbg

Katherine Clark, MA05, Democrat

That's exactly the problem. *You think* you're above the law.

Reality check: that's not how democracy works.

That's why we're impeaching you. #DefendOurDemocracy #ImpeachmentVote https://t.co/1wjFtMVshy

Seth Moulton, MA06, Democrat

The founding fathers were explicitly worried about foreign interference in our democracy when they wrote the Constitution. To say what Trump did isn’t impeachable is to violate the very principles our country was founded on. pic.twitter.com/7KWdmwoSSP

Stephen Lynch, MA-08, Democrat

Today I spoke with Jim and Margery on @BosPublicRadio and explained why we are moving forward with articles of impeachment against President Trump – not because it is popular, but sadly because it is necessary. https://t.co/DIdfM0rfVf
