FLORIDA LGBTA DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS CALLS ON THE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TO BEGIN IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP
DELRAY BEACH FL — Independent Counsel Robert Mueller today spoke about his investigation into President Trump and Russian involvement in the 2016 election, and made clear Justice Department rules prohibited him from charging the President with obstruction of justice. Stephen Gaskill, president of the Florida LGBTA Democratic Caucus, issued the following statement calling on Florida’s Congressional Delegation to immediately push for impeachment proceedings:
“Today, Robert Mueller contradicted the ‘no collusion, no obstruction’ line pushed by President Trump and his protectors in the White House. The evidence has been painstakingly laid out in the Mueller Report, and it leads to one conclusion: Congress must begin impeachment proceedings against the President for obstruction of justice. Every member of Florida’s Congressional Delegation should join the call for impeachment proceedings to begin immediately. The American people deserve accountability, and it’s time for Congress to do its job.”
