“after weeks of soul-searching, hearing from the people of Wyoming, and a thorough review of the evidence, I have reached a painful decision which I realize will severely impact our country and bring humiliation to another human being. At this crucial time, however, we have to put the good of the Republic, the integrity of the Constitution, and the rule of law above all else to protect the future of the United States America. For this reason, I will vote to impeach the President. This is an awesome responsibility that none of us take lightly, certainly not me. Perjury, obstruction of justice, and abuse of power undermine the basis of our judicial system, our system of laws, thereby undermining the very foundation of this great country. I recognize the profound effect my vote will have on the future of our democracy and most importantly, the effect and impact it will have on the future of our children. It may well be the most important vote I ever cast during my years of public service. I want you to know I have prayed for guidance every day. After examining all the material, watching the hearings, listening to the testimony and to the President, and making myself familiar with all the information I can, I have come to the sad conclusion that I must vote for all four proposed articles of impeachment against the President of the United States. In my view, there is no doubt the President's actions warrant impeachment and a subsequent trial in the Senate.”
