Rep. Bonamici: Acquittal sets ‘dangerous precedent’

February 5, 2020

Oregon Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici criticized the Senate's acquittal of President Trump Wednesday saying too many members of the body "failed to put country before party."

"Acquitting Trump without a fair trial sets a dangerous precedent for current and future Presidents to exploit," she said. "History will judge the Senate for failing to uphold its Constitutional duty to provide checks and balances."
