Exactly 21 years ago today I spoke on this floor in opposition to the impeachment of President Clinton. - And 21 years ago tomorrow I voted against all 4 Articles of Impeachment against President Clinton. Today's Articles of Impeachment against President Trump are an assault on our Constitution and the American people. To impeach a President for a phone call for which no crime is charged - nevermind a high crime - and for asserting his constitutional prerogatives as President is a clear abuse of power by the Congress. It sets the dangerous precedent of weaponzing Impeachment to undo the vote of the American people. This is a sad day we will long regret." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
