Scott Votes to Send Trump Impeachment Inquiry to Judiciary Committee

December 11, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Bobby Scott (VA-03) issued the following statement after voting No on the Republican Motion to Table H.Res. 939, Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States for high crimes and misdemeanors: “During his first term in office, I voted twice to impeach Donald Trump for his abuse of his office and his incitement of the deadly insurrection on January 6, 2021. House Republicans have shown little interest in conducting congressional oversight over Donald Trump and his Administrations during his time in office. “During his second term, Donald Trump has engaged in corrupt abuses of the Emoluments Clause, threatened violence against Members of Congress, and committed apparent war crimes in the Caribbean amongst other out-of-control, illegal behavior that demeans and abuses the Office of the President. It is long overdue for the House Judiciary Committee to hold hearings and investigate all potential high crimes and misdemeanors committed by President Trump.” # # #
