Political Quotes

On the recordOctober 22, 2019
Madam Speaker, I rise today to bring attention to the sham impeachment process being run out of this esteemed House. As House Democrats continue to pursue politically motivated attacks on President Trump, it is alarming that their leaders are withholding evidence and facts from elected Members of our Congress. Last week, I sent letters to the chairs of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, the Committee on Oversight and Reform, and the Committee on Foreign Affairs to inform them of my intent as an elected Member of the 116th Congress to review documents and records in possession of their committees. We must be allowed to do our jobs. The fair choice is clear. We cannot allow House Democrats to continue issuing political attacks behind the safety of clandestine, closed doors. Madam Speaker, I stand for transparency and I stand for accountability. I stand for fairness. It is time for this body to restore its integrity. ____________________
