| https://katherineclark.house.gov/press-releases?ID=BA77E6C8-70C7-46D4-90B6-D7498FC80886 | Joint Leadership Statement on Motion to Table H.Res.939 | 2025-12-11 | 2025 | 2025-12 | Democrat | House | MA | Katherine M. Clark | C001101 | katherineclark.house.gov | clark | https://katherineclark.house.gov/press-releases | scraper | Today, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Democratic Whip Katherine Clark and Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar issued the following statement: Donald Trump’s out-of-control behavior continues to put the health, safety and economic well-being of the American people at risk. At the same time, House Republicans have zero interest in holding this corrupt administration accountable. When Republicans gained full control of government this year, they promised to lower the cost of living on day one. Costs haven’t gone down, they’ve gone up. Life in America is more expensive and Republicans have not done a damn thing to address the affordability crisis. In fact, Donald Trump believes it’s a hoax. House Democrats remain laser-focused on fighting to lower the high cost of living, fix our broken healthcare system and clean up corruption. Moving forward, Congress must reclaim its constitutional role as a check and balance on an out-of-control executive branch. Impeachment is a sacred constitutional vehicle designed to hold a corrupt executive accountable for abuse of power, breaking the law and violating the public trust. The effort traditionally requires a comprehensive investigative process, the collection and review of thousands of documents, an exacting scrutiny of the facts, the examination of dozens of key witnesses, Congressional hearings, sustained public organizing and the marshaling of the forces of democracy to build a broad national consensus. None of that serious work has been done, with the Republican majority focused solely on rubber stamping Donald Trump’s extreme agenda. Accordingly, we will be voting “present” on today’s motion to table the impeachment resolution as we continue our fight to make life more affordable for everyday Americans. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:09:11Z |
