Congressman Jerry Carl Votes Against Impeaching President Trump
Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Jerry Carl (R-Mobile) announced he voted against the impeachment of President Trump.
In a statement, Carl said, “Today House Democrats moved forward with a vote to impeach President Trump. I voted no because the reasons cited in these articles fail to reach the necessary threshold for impeachment. Furthermore, the President has publicly conceded the election and committed to a peaceful transition of power, and I trust he will uphold his promise to ensure a smooth transition to the next administration. With only a few days left until January 20th, impeachment would further divide the American people when unity is needed. I remain committed to doing the job I was elected to do, rather than wasting time on Nancy Pelosi’s personal vendetta against President Trump.”
House Resolution 24 – Impeachment Article passed the House Wednesday afternoon by a vote of 232-197.
Congressman Carl’s office can be reached at 202-225-4931.
