Doug Collins (R-Ga.), Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, released the following statement after the Judiciary Committee voted on the articles of impeachment. Today's vote highlights the pettiness of last night's delay and the folly of articles of impeachment that allege no crime and establish no case. While it's already clear that Democrats broke their own promises to rig this outcome, what will become more obvious in the coming days and years is that Democrats gravely abused their power. This abuse of power doesn't just undermine the integrity of our chamber or the independence of future presidencies. Democrats have sacrificed core American tenets of due process, fairness and the presumption of innocence on the altar of a 2016 election that they lost three years ago. Rather than help Americans move into the future with confidence, Democrats are attempting to knee-cap our democracy. They're telling millions of voters that Democrats will work to overturn the will of the people whenever it conflicts with the will of liberal elites. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
