Rep. Magaziner Delivers Floor Speech on House Republicans’ Impeachment Effort

Washington, D.C. – Today, Representative Seth Magaziner (RI-02) spoke on the House Floor in opposition to House Republicans using valuable time and resources on a baseless impeachment inquiry into President Biden instead of focusing on helping working people in Rhode Island and across the country. 

Magaziner’s full remarks are below:

Mr. Speaker, the Rhode Islanders who I talk to are so disappointed in this Congress.

They sent us here to fight to make their lives better, not to play political games like the sham impeachment push that House Republicans are making against the president despite no evidence of wrongdoing. 

The people expect us to fight to lower costs, to go after the companies that are price gouging working Americans. They expect us to fight for Social Security and Medicare and abortion rights and to fix roads and bridges.

Instead, the extreme House Republicans are pushing for impeachment of the president despite having no evidence of wrongdoing. 

After a year of investigations, we need to remember who sent us here and what they sent us here to fight for. 

I urge my colleagues, let's fight for working people in this country.

Stop the political games. Stop the nonsense and I yield back.
