Joyce Statement on Impeachment Vote

Congressman John Joyce, M.D. (PA-13) released the following statement after voting against the House resolution to transmit two Articles of Impeachment to the Senate.

"After attempting to justify a shameful impeachment process by claiming its ?urgency,' Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats waited 28 days to transmit the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate. Today's vote in the House reaffirms what we have known from the beginning: House Democrats voted to impeach President Trump simply because they do not like him and disregard the legitimate votes of the Americans who elected him. Even as the President signs a historic trade deal with China that delivers on his promises to our nation, House Democrats continue to play petty politics. As a Member of Congress, I will continue fighting to protect my constituents' right to have a voice in our American democracy."
