During a two-day markup Wednesday and Thursday, the committee considered a variety of amendments before sending articles charging the President with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress for the full House to take up next week. During Thursday's debate, Congressman Cohen said: The proof is there. This is the most abusive act we can imagine trying to influence our elections with foreign interference. That takes power away from the American people. And that would end our country as we know it: a democracy, a shining city on the hill, a beacon of hope to people around the world who followed our revolution by changing their governments to give people the power, not kings. See Congressman Cohen's entire remarks here. On Wednesday night, Congressman Cohen delivered a Judiciary Committee speech about the effrontery President Trump's actions have been to the memory of those whofought for free and fair electionsand extended civil rights.See that speech here. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
