WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO) today sponsored a resolution to impeach President Donald J. Trump for inciting a mob to attack the U.S. Capitol Building Wednesday in an attempt to prevent Congress from certifying the results of the recent presidential election for his opponent.
"President Trump is a real danger to this country." DeGette said. "Whether it be through the invocation of the 25th amendment or by Congress's power to impeach, President Trump needs to be removed from office immediately."
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following is a statement from U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO) on the breach of the U.S. Capitol Building:
"Today, the president of the United States instigated a riot and urged his supporters to lay siege to the U.S. Capitol Building to try to prevent us from certifying the election for his opponent. Make no mistake: This was not a protest, it was an attempted coup. And I never thought I'd see the day that our own president would attempt to bring down our government because he lost an election.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – A bicameral group of federal lawmakers – led by U.S. Reps. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.) and Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.) and U.S. Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) – sent letters to some of the nation's largest tobacco companies demanding more information on the companies' exploitation of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic to market their vaping products to youth.
