Justin Amash in Trump impeachment

On Principles & Values: Amash's call for impeachment condemned by Freedom Caucus

It was unanimous. The House Freedom Caucus formally condemned Rep. Justin Amash's (R-MI) call to begin impeachment proceedings against President Trump. Having read the Robert Mueller report in its entirety, Amash tweeted that there were enough questions in there to suggest Trump obstructed justice and engaged in "impeachable conduct." They did not go so far as to vote him out of the conservative caucus. [Amash stepped down from the Freedom Caucus in June 2019].

On Principles & Values: Nobody wins in a trade war

The Michigan Congressman has opposed declaring America's border crisis a national emergency, has opposed the repeal and replace of Obamacare, and told a Young Americans for Liberty conference that all options were on the table in terms of replacing Trump as the GOP nominee in 2020. He has also defended allowing China to continue ravaging the U.S. economy by declaring: "Trade wars are bad, and nobody wins".

On Principles & Values: People want open, honest representation

People want open, honest representation. They want people to come to Congress and work with integrity. What the president is doing is lowering the tone across the country. He's harming civil discourse. He's creating a lot of partisan divide. He's enhancing it. I think that's very dangerous for our country. I don't think a lot of people appreciate it. I think a lot of people put up with it because the economy is good right now. But I don't think they'd put up with it if things went south.
