Frederica Freyberg:

On Wednesday, one week to the day after Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol and killed a Capitol Police officer, the House of Representatives voted to impeach President Trump. The second impeachment of the president came with ten Republican votes in favor. Wisconsin members voted along party lines.

Mark Pocan:

The U.S. Capitol has not been breached for over 200 years, since the War of 1812 that is until last week when it wasn’t another country that attacked us, but our own president. President Donald Trump asked his supporters to march on the Capitol, inciting domestic terrorism that cost five lives, including a Capitol Police officer.

Glenn Grothman:

I rise today to strongly object to the Articles of Impeachment proposed against President Trump, which make the preposterous claim that President Trump wanted or expected the riots that took place last week. He clearly said he wanted peaceful and patriotic demonstration. He did say he wanted people to fight like hell or we’re not going to have a country anymore, but that’s obviously standard hyperbole and was not meant to aim at physical fights.

Tom Tiffany:

In yet these last two days, we have seen just how fast they can move when they want to exact political retribution on their opponents. My friends on the other side now have complete control of both Houses of Congress and in a few days they will control the entire executive branch as well. Madam Speaker, Joe Biden has talked about unity and healing. Is that what this is today?

Gwen Moore:

While people died, he watched with glee. That is why even though it’s only seven days before the end of his term, we have the fierce urgency of now. Seven days is too long for him to be in power.
