Congressional Integrity Project, Dennis Aftergut, and PPP Hold Press Briefing on Bogus Impeachment and Biden 18 Battleground House Districts

Sep 6, 2023

***MEDIA ADVISORY FOR WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6 AT 10AM PT***

New poll shows a majority of voters in these districts believe a MAGA Republican Impeachment Inquiry of President Biden would be more about helping Donald Trump than finding the truth. 

Los Angeles, CAOn Wednesday, September 6 at 10am, Lawyers Defending American Democracy of counsel Dennis Aftergut, Public Policy Polling Analyst Jim Williams, and Congressional Integrity Project Senior Advisor Brad Woodhouse will join a virtual press briefing hosted by Congressional Integrity Project.

The virtual press conference will be held ahead of the House’s return on September 12th and as Republicans ramp up their plans to hold a bogus impeachment of President Biden. As Donald Trump continues to get into more and more legal trouble, MAGA House Republicans have gotten more desperate to come up with distractions and their evidence-free impeachment will just be their latest failed attempt. MAGA House Republicans have failed to find a single shred of evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden but that is not stopping them from continuing these political stunts. If Kevin McCarthy holds a vote on an impeachment inquiry as recently promised, US Reps Duarte, Garcia, Kim, Steel, and Valadao will have to decide where they stand on these bogus political stunts.

The virtual press conference also follows the release of a new poll commissioned by the Congressional Integrity Project and conducted by Public Policy Polling. The poll found that a majority of voters in these districts believe a Republican impeachment inquiry of President Biden would be more about damaging President Biden politically than finding the truth. And a majority of these voters continue to believe that House Republicans’ impeachment plans are more of a political stunt than a serious investigation.

The poll was conducted in the districts of Don Bacon (NE-2), Lori Chavez-Deremer (OR-5), Juan Ciscomani (AZ-6), Anthony D’Esposito (NY-4), John Duarte (CA-13), Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-1), Mike Garcia (CA-27), Tom Kean, Jr. (NJ-7), Jen Kiggans (VA-2), Young Kim (CA-40), Nick LaLota (NY-1), Mike Lawler (NY-17), Marc Molinaro (NY-19), George Santos (NY-3), David Schweikert (AZ-1), Michelle Steel (CA-45), David Valadao (CA-22), and Brandon Williams (NY-22).

Join us as our experts discuss the House Republicans’ bogus impeachment stunts and failed investigations and the results of the new polling.
