Congressional Progressive Caucus issues support for impeachment investigation
By Tal Axelrod - 09/10/19 06:10 PM EDT

The Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) announced Tuesday its support for an impeachment investigation into President Trump, an issue that continues to divide House Democrats.

“It is impossible to ignore the mounting evidence that President Trump has repeatedly broken the law, committed impeachable offenses, and continues to obstruct justice. The Congressional Progressive Caucus strongly endorses the House Judiciary Committee's current formal impeachment investigation and the adoption of the Resolution of Investigative Procedures,” the CPC said in a statement.


“Our duty is to uphold the Constitution and we must do all we can to protect our democracy,” it added.

The CPC has 98 members, making it the second-biggest Democratic caucus.
