U.S. Congressman Steve King Joins Nearly 30 Other Republican Leaders In Protesting Secrecy Of Impeachment Hearings

Congressman for Iowa’s 4th District, Steve King, was one of about 30 Republican leaders who stormed the secure room at the Capitol building Wednesday morning in protest of the secrecy behind the President Trump impeachment hearings. King says the lack of transparency in these hearings, led by California Representative, Adam Schiff, is the greatest atrocity he has seen in Congress over the past 17 years. “It’s unimaginable that anybody would have the audacity to hold secret impeachment hearings here in the House of Representatives, the People’s House,” King says. As the group “stormed” the chambers Kings says Schiff immediately escorted the witness out another door. According to King, there is no provision in the Constitution and no precedent that allows such secrecy and there is no sense of decency or fairness that would allow them to happen. He promises to hold firm on the line drawn Wednesday morning. “This President has proven to hold up under all of these tests that have come forward, and we’re going to stand with this President, and we’re going to push back this impeachment effort here in the House of Representatives,” King says.
