Today’s vote is a defining moment for every member of the U.S. House of Representatives. History is watching as Republican Members will weigh the choice of casting a vote for their country or for their party. Amidst a growing list of witnesses testifying about shocking abuses of power by the Trump administration and the president’s inner circle and seismic shifts in public disapproval of the president’s conduct, this is the first time many Members will be asked to cast a formal vote that will put them on the right—or wrong—side of history.

To cast a vote to stop the impeachment inquiry and ignore the testimony and evidence amassed already would be to condone the abuse of power by the President of the United States. A vote to stop the inquiry is nothing short of a violation of a Member’s oath of office. The evidence must be pursued for our democracy to survive.

Almost daily more comes to light about President Trump’s ongoing abuse of the powers of his office. A string of witnesses has testified that the President held back congressional appropriations of nearly $400 million in order to push the Ukrainian president to investigate his political rival Joe Biden and his son Hunter.

Regarding this same series of events, Common Cause filed a formal 불평 last month with the Justice Department and the Federal Election Commission alleging that President Trump, Rudy Giuliani, and other political operatives violated federal campaign finance laws by soliciting a political contribution from a foreign national—by urging the Ukrainian president to investigate the Bidens.

In recent months, and right up to today’s vote, Common Cause has mobilized its 1.2 million members to help drive additional Member support for an impeachment inquiry in the U.S. House of Representatives. Common Cause initially ~라고 불리는 7월 24일 조사를 위해 보고서 하원의 모든 의원에게 탄핵 조사의 필요성을 강조하며 주장을 펼쳤습니다. 동시에 우리는 웹사이트를 시작했습니다. 임피치먼트인콰이어리.org 탄핵 조사에 대한 대표자들의 입장을 추적하고, 하원 의원들에게 이러한 조사를 지지하도록 촉구하기 위해 대중의 접근을 용이하게 합니다.
