Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressional Integrity Project released a new report titled Vulnerable Republicans Will Break Their Campaign Promises By Pursuing Impeachment which highlights promises that Republicans in the 18 House districts held by Republicans but won by President Biden in 2020 made to their constituents while running for office. These 18 members promised to focus on the real issues that matter to the American people like growing the economy, creating jobs, and lowering costs. Instead, MAGA Republicans in Congress have focused on doing Trump’s bidding, conducting bogus investigations into President Biden.

The report includes statements from 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).

Congressional Integrity Project executive director Kyle Herrig issued the following statement:

“When the Biden 18 ran for Congress they promised the American people that they would focus on important issues like healthcare and inflation. Since taking office, they’ve made clear through non-stop partisan political stunts that those promises were lies. Impeachment is their latest and greatest stunt. While McCarthy is trying to avoid a vote on an impeachment inquiry to save the Biden 18 from going on the record, the American people deserve to know where they stand on an evidence-free impeachment, and we will plan to hold them accountable for the promises they made to the American people when they ran for their office.”
