“The Congress must hold President Trump to account and send a clear message that our country cannot and will not tolerate any effort by any President to impede the peaceful transfer of power from one President to the next. Thus, I will vote to impeach.”
Rep. Fred Upton has represented Michigan’s 6th district in the House of Representatives since he was first elected in 1986, and he is the longest-serving member of Michigan’s congressional delegation.
