Statement

Date: Sept. 26, 2019
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Executive Branch

U.S. Representative Mike Doyle (PA-18) released the following statement in response to the testimony this morning of Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire and the public release of the whistle-blower's complaint alleging that President Trump broke the law.

"The whistleblower report and the House Intelligence Committee hearing with DNI Maguire today highlighted serious, credible charges that President Trump broke the law -- and confirmed my belief that Congress must fully investigate the allegations and follow the facts wherever they may lead.

"The allegations -- some of which appear to be validated by the memorandum released by the White House yesterday describing the call between President Trump and President Zelensky -- are serious enough to justify impeachment and merit the investigation planned in the House. I believe that a thorough impeachment inquiry must move forward expeditiously."
