WASHINGTON – Rep. Ron Estes (R-Kansas) released the following statement after Congress certified the Electoral College votes from the 2020 presidential election.
"I strongly condemn yesterday's unlawful, un-American actions of a violent mob that severely tarnished our electoral process and horrified Americans across this country," said Rep. Estes. "Despite attempts to thwart the lawful proceedings, the United States Congress continued our business through the night, concluding a presidential election that had high emotions on all sides. Now that the full process has concluded, I congratulate President-elect Biden. I expect to see a smooth and peaceful transition of administrations, and I will continue advocating for voter integrity through debate, legislation, and litigation where it belongs." 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. |
