Joyce Voices Strong Opposition to Democrats’ Sham Impeachment Process

October 6, 2020

Rep. Joyce: “I wholeheartedly oppose this partisan and shameful effort to impeach our democratically-elected President.”

Today on the House Floor, Congressman John Joyce (PA-13) delivered remarks in opposition to the shameful impeachment process that has occurred against President Trump in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Watch Congressman Joyce's full remarks.

Full Remarks:

Madam Speaker, I rise today, on this dark day in the United States House of Representatives, to voice my opposition to the shameful impeachment process that has occurred in the People's House.

Some of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle do not like President Trump. We know this because they proudly boasted about their intention to impeach the President before he was even sworn into office.

Out of disdain for the President and for those of us who elected him, the House of Representatives is considering two Articles of Impeachment that are so very weak that they fail to include specific crimes.

The people that I represent in southcentral and southwestern Pennsylvania know the truth. The American people know the truth.

This impeachment circus has never been about the facts. This process has always been about seeking revenge for the President's election in 2016 and attempting to prevent him from winning again in 2020.

Madam Speaker, I wholeheartedly oppose this partisan and shameful effort to impeach our democratically-elected President. For the sake of our nation, I urge my colleagues to join with me and vote no on these Articles of Impeachment.

The House is expected to vote on the Articles of Impeachment this evening.
