Madam Speaker, since November 9, 2016, Democrats have been calling for the removal of President Trump. Even before he took office, they have been protesting the results of the election and have sought to delegitimize his historic win in battleground States like Michigan. Breaking with historical precedent, House Democrat leadership will not hold a vote on this extremely consequential matter. House Democrats have created a toxic work environment, resulting in nothing getting done, no good policy or law created, no regular order. This is a politically motivated charade attempting to undermine and diminish the effectiveness of a duly elected President and his administration based on bias, prejudice, and disgraceful politics. The people of the First District of Michigan sent me here to work with others to get things done and represent the people with honor and integrity. I am sure my 434 colleagues were sent here with the same mission. It is high time to get back to real work. ____________________
