BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT
Mrs. HOUCHIN. Mr. Speaker, today, on the very day Hunter Biden ignored a subpoena from this body, we will vote to take the next critical step in formalizing the House's impeachment inquiry into President Biden.
For months, the White House and Hunter Biden have been stonewalling our investigation trying to hide the truth, and this stonewalling is what has caused us to be here today. Like Chairman Cole said yesterday, it is deeply sad and not something any of us want to be doing on this House floor, but it has become necessary.
Following today's floor vote on H. Res. 918, the committees on Oversight and Accountability, Ways and Means, and Judiciary will have greater legal position and subpoena power to fully investigate allegations of influence peddling and wrongdoing by President Biden, his family, and his associates.
The American people deserve transparency and accountability. They deserve the truth, and that is exactly what they are going to get from this Republican House.
