Reaction to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s call for House Democrats to “proceed with articles of impeachment” against President Trump fell along party lines. Arizona Representatives Tom O’Halleran, Greg Stanton, and David Schweikert as well as Senators Martha McSally and Kyrsten Sinema remained silent on social media on the subject.
It is a sad state in the United States Congress where one member – the chairman of the committee – starts spying and trying to acquire phone and technological records from the ranking member of the other party. That is an incredible devolution of this body. pic.twitter.com/ajmM5SJBwU

The facts & evidence the Judiciary Committee gathered made more clear than ever that Trump abused his power & committed multiple impeachable offenses. He left us no choice but to move ahead w/ articles of impeachment. It’s our duty to uphold the Constitution & #DefendOurDemocracy

It’s abundantly clear that Trump abused his power and endangered our national security when he attempted to extort Ukraine into interfering in our elections. Congress has a moral obligation to #DefendOurDemocracy & impeach this reckless President. https://t.co/F504tqoSjW

Dems have had their minds made up since the day Trump was elected. This has never been about the facts, which are still on the President’s side. This entire process has been biased and politically motivated, with no basic standards of due process. Pelosi & Dems must end this sham
