(Washington, D.C.) – Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D. (IN-08) released the following statement after voting against Speaker Pelosi’s resolution appointing the House’s impeachment managers for the Senate trial:

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi slammed these sham articles of impeachment through the House at breakneck speed; justifying her actions by suggesting President Trump was an imminent threat to American Democracy. Now, more than a month after the partisan vote in the House to adopt the articles of impeachment – our democracy still fully intact – Speaker Pelosi is finally moving forward to appoint impeachment managers and actually transmitting the articles of impeachment to the Senate. Her actions are not justified, her reasons are not sound, and her attempt to interfere in the Senate process is tantamount to a child throwing a fit – all of it clearly showing that impeachment is nothing more than a partisan endeavor engineered in an attempt to influence the outcome of the 2020 elections.

“While Washington Democrats play politics, real work to improve the lives of Americans has taken a back seat to the impeachment agenda. It’s time that we end this sham impeachment process once for all and get down to business the American people elected us to do in the first place.”
