Meng Issues Statement on Impeachment Inquiry into President Trump

September 24, 2019
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Grace Meng (D-NY) issued the following statement after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the beginning of a formal impeachment inquiry.
"The American people deserve the truth, and the President deserves the consequences of his actions. President Trump pressured a foreign government to investigate his domestic political rival. I believe this is yet another impeachable offense. President Trump betrayed his oath to the American people. The President cannot be trusted and he will continue to undermine our democracy and risk our national security. I called for impeachment proceedings in July after fully considering Mueller's findings, and am pleased the House is moving forward."
