(WASHINGTON, DC)—Congressman Mike Rogers made the following statement today after the White House sent a letter to House Democrat Leadership stating that the Trump Administration would not cooperate with the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry.

            “President Trump is absolutely right to not participate in Nancy Pelosi’s sham impeachment inquiry.  The Democrat’s ongoing antics are nothing more than their continued attempt to undo the 2016 election and take down the president that the American people elected fair and square.  

            “House Democrats refuse to vote on the impeachment inquiry on the House Floor and will not share information with Republicans.  Even more, Chairman Adam Schiff sat before his committee recently and made up his own version of the telephone conversation between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky.  

            “House Democrats have no respect for the rule of law, fairness or House procedure. Most of all, House Democrats have no respect for the American people for threatening to put our Nation through this bogus impeachment stunt.

            “I will continue to proudly stand with President Trump against these politically motivated attacks from the radical left,” Rogers said.

            Rogers serves as Ranking Member on the Committee on Homeland Security and a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee.
