Where WA Reps. Stand On Trump Impeachment

BELLINGHAM, WA — There are now three members of Washington's congressional delegation who have publicly said they want to impeach President Donald Trump.

On Thursday, U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Bellingham, said he would vote to impeach over Trump's recent racist comments. Trump on Sunday told four women in Congress — with an emphasis on U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar — to "go back" to where they came from.

"This president has no concept of this widely and tightly held belief of Americans. His comments do not protect the concept of U.S. citizenship. They undermine it. He should not be the President of the United States," Larsen said in a statement.

Before Larsen, Reps. Pramila Jayapal, D-Seattle, and Adam Smith, D-Renton, had said they were in favor of impeachment. Reps. Denny Heck, D-Olympia, Derek Kilmer, D-Gig Harbor, Kim Schrier, D-Issaquah, and Suzan DelBene, D-Redmond, have not come out in support of impeachment.

On Wednesday, the House voted 332 to 95 to table a resolution to impeach Trump. Smith, Kilmer, Heck, DelBene, and Schrier all voted in favor of tabling that resolution, effectively killing it.

Republic Reps. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Jaime Herrera Beutler, and Dan Newhouse are firmly against impeaching Trump.
