(ETH) – Republican Rep. Fred Upton of west Michigan has officially become the 4th Republican lawmaker to announce that he will vote to impeach President Donald Trump stating:
“The Congress must hold President Trump to account and send a clear message that our country cannot and will not tolerate any effort by any President to impede the peaceful transfer of power from one President to the next. Thus, I will vote to impeach.” Upton joins several other GOP Lawmakers who have also voiced that they will push for Trump to be impeached including:
GOP Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney – “The President of the United States summoned his mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack. Everything that followed was his doing. … There has never been a greater betrayal by a President of the United States of his office and his oath to the Constitution. I will vote to impeach the President.”
John Katko (N.Y.): “To allow the president of the United States to incite this attack without consequence is a direct threat to the future of our democracy. For that reason, I cannot sit by without taking action. I will vote to impeach this president.”
Adam Kinzinger (Ill.): “There is no doubt in my mind that the president broke his oath of office and incited this insurrection…I will vote in favor of impeachment.”
