House Democrats still looking for facts to support impeachment proceedings
House Democrats are currently conducting a number of investigations to determine if the President committed an impeachable offense.
On Monday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wrote in her letter to fellow Democrats that impeachments proceedings are not the only option to find the truth to hold Trump “accountable.”
According to Pelosi, “While our views range from proceeding to investigate the findings of the Mueller report or proceeding directly to impeachment, we all firmly agree that we should proceed down a path of finding the truth.”
“As we proceed to uncover the truth and present additional needed reforms to protect our democracy, we must show the American people we are proceeding free from passion or prejudice, strictly on the presentation of fact,” she added.
