Congressman Meeks Calls for Impeachment

Washington, DC – Today, Congressman W. Meeks officially called for impeachment, releasing the following statement:

"As someone who has long said the President's conduct makes him unfit for office, and called for Committees of jurisdiction to continue their oversight investigations, I believe that this administration has crossed the line in refusing to turn over information on the whistle-blower. Not only are they required to hand over that information by law, and are thus obstructing Congresses' constitutional oversight duties, what the whistle-blower brought forward is unprecedented. The President of the United States has solicited a foreign government to fabricate dirt on his political opponent, hanging the implication of withdrawn U.S. support as leverage. This unprecedented abuse of power, and continued obstruction, leaves us with no other recourse but to pursue impeachment proceedings."
