Rogers Will Oppose Resolution Condemning President Trump

Statement

Congressman Mike Rogers made the following statement today ahead of the vote on H. Res. 489, condemning President Trump for his tweets from July 14.

"President Trump is exactly right: America is the greatest nation on earth. The radical socialists that have taken over the Democratic party see it differently. Because their ideas are bankrupt and based on hate, all they have is name calling and identity politics. When Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently questioned the actions of four of her socialist female Members, she was accused of singling out women of color in Congress. And now President Trump is being accused of racism because he puts America first and stands up for our country. I am proud to stand with President Trump."

Rogers will vote against this resolution later today when it is expected to come to the House Floor for a vote.

Rogers serves as Ranking Member of the House Committee on Homeland Security and is a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee.
