Larson Votes to Advance Articles of Impeachment Against President Donald J. Trump

Washington, D.C. - Today, Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) voted to advance articles of impeachment against President Trump. In April, Larson filed thirteen articles of impeachment against the President for high crimes and misdemeanors, including his illegal war in Iran, unlawful deployment of the military on domestic soil, and unconstitutional effort to strip citizenship from millions of Americans. 

“As Donald Trump wages an illegal war in Iran and terrorizes immigrant communities with Gestapo tactics in our neighborhoods, I filed articles of impeachment to hold him accountable for these continued violations of the law and his blatant disregard for the Constitution of the United States,” said Larson. “While Republicans thought they could divide Democrats on this vote, we remain united in the effort to hold him accountable for his abuses of power and failed agenda hurting the American people. Make no mistake—real impeachment proceedings will move forward when Democrats retake control of the House of Representatives for the American people.”
