Republican U.S. Representative Bill Huizenga (R-Zeeland, MI-2) released this Impeachment statement:

“After examining the Article of Impeachment put forward by House Democrats, I do not believe their evidence rises to the constitutional threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors,” said Congressman Bill Huizenga. “What took place on January 6th was a tragedy. Violence has no place in our political system. With days remaining in President Trump’s term, impeachment further divides our nation and prevents us from coming together. West Michigan expects Congress to move forward and tackle the many issues we face as a nation.”
