Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for High Crimes and Misdemeanors

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. MOORE of Utah. Madam Speaker, last Wednesday, on my third day, I realized that I can make hard and seemingly unpopular decisions. Voting to strip electoral college votes from States is a dangerous precedent set by Democrats many years ago and perpetuated by my party as well. I heard nothing in those debates that justified such a high bar.

A rushed impeachment will set a similar precedent. Without a single hearing or investigation, I simply cannot reach the high bar of impeachment.

To my district, I commit to constantly being objective in all of my decision-making.

And, as I abandon the remainder of my remarks, as I listen to this debate, it is no wonder our Nation is divided. We are on an absolute race to the bottom. I was hoping that last week we could have hit rock bottom.

I commit to doing better, and I hope that we all can dig in and find a way.
