Suzanne Bonamici, OR01, Democrat

The public impeachment hearings and committee report have confirmed that the President abused his power and put our national security at risk. This is what our Founding Fathers feared when they created the checks and balances in our Constitution.

Greg Walden, OR02, Republican

Greg Walden has not tweeted about impeachment recently, but this was his tweet about his vote on the impeachment inquiry:

Regarding my vote on H. Res. 660: This has been a flawed process all along. It has lacked transparency and barred most Members of Congress, myself included, from being able to access testimony from witnesses.

Earl Blumenauer, OR03, Democrat

It's clear that Trump committed the impeachable offenses laid out in the #ArticlesOfImpeachment today.

From my perspective, he should be impeached for many others as well.

Peter DeFazio, OR04, Democrat

Peter DeFazio has not tweeted about impeachment recently, but this was his tweet about his vote on the impeachment inquiry:

Trump has admitted to soliciting assistance from a foreign leader to interfere with elections and aid his political campaign, a violation of the Constitution, a betrayal of the American people, and an impeachable offense. My statement on today's vote: https://t.co/SwE900nivs

After solemn deliberation, reading the documents relevant to the impeachment inquiry and closely following the hearings, I will be supporting the two articles of impeachment for the President of the United States.

Russ Fulcher, ID01, Republican

Received new polling info at a meeting at Camp David. It supports my theory that proceeding with impeachment backfires on democrats in the 2020 election– particularly in swing districts. Also democrat candidates are not polling well vs. @realDonaldTrump. https://t.co/OhlftkYL1v

Mike Simpson, ID02, Republican

We have real work to do and this madness should come to an end.
