Rose Condemns House Democrats' Articles of Impeachment

Statement

U.S. Representative John Rose (TN-6) condemned today's introduction of Articles of Impeachment against President Donald J. Trump.

"What we have seen today is not surprising. For three years, House Democrats have planned to impeach President Trump," Rep. Rose said. "These Articles of Impeachment reflect a true disdain for President Trump and an irreverence for the impeachment process."

Today, House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (NY-10) introduced two Articles of Impeachment against the president, the first being "Abuse of Power," and the second is "Obstruction of Congress."

"House Democrats have spent the entire year preparing for impeachment instead of ratifying the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), authorizing funding for our military through the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), or passing adequate funding to secure our southern border," Rep. Rose continued.

"If the full House considers these Articles of Impeachment," Rep Rose stated, "I will be voting "no.'"

U.S. Representative John Rose represents Tennessee's Sixth Congressional District and resides in Cookeville with his wife, Chelsea, and their son, Guy. The Sixth District includes Cannon, Clay, Coffee, Cumberland, DeKalb, Fentress, Jackson, Macon, Overton, Pickett, Putnam, Robertson, Smith, Sumner, Trousdale, White, and Wilson counties as well as portions of Cheatham and Van Buren counties.
