Rep. French Hill (R-AR) cautioned House Republicans against repeating the mistakes they believe were made during Trump's second impeachment as pressure mounts to open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.
Hill said he doesn't think the House committees have “remotely completed their work” in thoroughly investigating Biden, calling out House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan and House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer who are looking into the Biden family’s past foreign business dealings, for not yet having “detailed investigations and quality work.
Hill, who has represented Arkansas' 2nd Congressional District since 2015, said Republicans shouldn't “repeat the mistakes we think that Nancy Pelosi made by prematurely moving to impeachment during the Trump administration.” Hill referenced former President Donald Trump's second impeachment in 2021 for inciting the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, which resulted in the House approving a resolution of impeachment two days later, pushed through by former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi .
Another looming fight over House Republicans and Biden government funding is heating up as time is running out to avert a government shutdown, with some GOP members like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene threatening to not vote on federal spending if an impeachment inquiry on Biden is not passed. Speaking on the potential of a government shutdown, which would occur at midnight on Sept. 30 if Congress fails to pass spending legislation, Hill said he’s “hopeful we can avoid a shutdown,” urging lawmakers to “get the other 11 bills that we have not passed during the summer across the House floor, we've only passed one and the Senate's passed 12.
“But to have that negotiating clout, we need to get all those bills passed across the House floor,” Hill said. “A government shutdown is not going to improve that situation. And a long-term continuing resolution only institutionalizes last year's Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden priorities. I don't think House conservatives want that to happen.”
