Statement

Date: Nov. 1, 2019
Location: Washington, DC

This morning, Congressman John Joyce (PA-13) joined Neil Cavuto on Fox Business to discuss yesterday's vote on H.Res. 660, House Democrats' partisan impeachment inquiry resolution.

Selected Quotes:

The American people are seeing through this. What the American people want is a fair and transparent process, and that's not what has been put through. This impeachment inquiry is a sham.

[Chairman Adam] Schiff is acting as witness, as prosecutor, a judge, and jury. We need to have a fair, open, and transparent process, and the Republicans have requested that.

Just in March, [Speaker] Nancy Pelosi said that, "we will not proceed unless there is a bipartisan vote." That is not what happened yesterday. This was a partisan vote and a continuation of the witch hunt. We thought that Halloween ended yesterday, but the witch hunt continues.

As a Member of the 116th Congress, I should be allowed to read the transcripts. I have gone down to the SCIF and requested to see what has already been presented, and I wasn't allowed to do that…the American people demand an open process and they haven't seen that.
