After my vote today, I will go home and explain to my two boys why it was important to impeach the president. It’s a conversation that parents across the country are having right now with their kids. I wanted to share my thoughts as you're having that conversation (thread).
This is a conversation that explains that when someone does something wrong, there are consequences; that reminds them that nobody is above the law; and it’s a conversation that reminds them that our country is something worth protecting.
The events of last week will define this era and sets a course on the future of this country. We can choose to act and make it clear for future generations that the actions of the President and his supporters will not be tolerated, or we can allow inaction to speak volumes.
I have to look my kids in the eye, and my constituents in the eye, and explain that choice. For that, I will always choose standing up for the integrity of the Republic we serve and the protection of the country we call home.
