I've said at this podium before,
next to a declaration of war,
impeachment, arguably the heaviest power that the House has.
Why? Because it's so serious.
It's so important. And the previous couple of years,
the House Democrats cheapened impeachment.
They they used it for partisan political purposes.
They went after Donald Trump twice.
I served on the impeachment defense team twice.
This vote is not a vote to impeach President Biden.
This is a vote to continue the inquiry of impeachment.
And that's a necessary constitutional step.
