This must be a proud day for many Washington Democrats: the beginning of their quest to impeach our duly-elected President of the United States, with wall-to-wall coverage from all the major media networks of this circus of an event. But I, again, rise today to implore the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, to conduct the business of the people. The people of America elected all 435 of us to do the things that they expect Congress to do--real business, not theater. And the business that the people expect us to do, of the utmost importance today, would be to ratify the USMCA and to take up the demand to try to have some type of prescription drug reform legislation passed before the end of the year. But, instead of doing these two most essential acts that Congress should be taking up to represent the people of America, we have, instead, the majority party conducting baseless impeachment hearings. I conclude again by calling on Nancy Pelosi and the majority party to do the things the American people actually want Congress to do. ____________________
