I was struck by the potential of non-traditional education courses for today's evolving workforce.

I want to thank you for the opportunity to appear before you today and discuss legislation that Congressman Ro Khanna and I introduced, the VET TEC Expansion Act.

I introduced the original VET TEC Act in early 2017 and President Trump signed it into law that summer.

It's behind closed doors with a Chairman who has lied three times to the American public looking them in the eye. And somehow, we're supposed to trust what comes out of that?

Well, we pause for one moment and you read this IG report by Horowitz, here's the FBI, they broke into President Trump at the time candidate Trump's campaign, spied on him, and then they covered it up. It is a modern day Watergate.

Democrats have pushed forward using a partisan process that limited the President's right to due process.

The partisan process prescribed and pursued by Democrats is truly unprecedented.

Seven weeks ago when this committee met to consider a resolution to guide the process for the Democrats' unprecedented impeachment inquiry, I warned that they were treading on shaky ground with their unfair and close process.

What I cannot discern is a legitimate reason why, why the majority is moving forward when the process is so partisan.

Well, put a candidate up that is worth voting for. How about that?

When half of Americans are telling you that what you are doing is wrong, you should listen.

The majority is seeking to remove the President over something that didn't happen: the alleged quid pro quo with the President of Ukraine.
