WASHINGTON—Congressman Ron Estes (R-Kansas) released the following statement after voting against two articles of impeachment in the U.S. House of Representatives.

"Tonight's impeachment is not about evidence, the rule of law or the Constitution. Instead, the articles of impeachment passed tonight by the U.S. House of Representatives are the culmination of a desire by many House Democrats to impeach President Trump which began the day he was sworn-in," said Rep. Estes. "Despite the standards called for by Speaker Pelosi, tonight's impeachment was completely partisan and without compelling evidence. I voted against impeaching President Trump and will continue standing with the millions of Kansans and Americans who voted for Donald Trump and who are against these reckless articles of impeachment. Speaker Pelosi rightly predicted this would be a divisive maneuver, yet the radical left has pushed it forward. My hope is that once this is over, the House can get back to work for the American people."

Ron Estes is a 5th generation Kansan and represents Kansas’ 4th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. He serves on the House Committee on Ways and Means.
