Congresswoman Diane Watson's Statement on Signing John Conyers' Impeachment Resolution

The following statement was issued this afternoon to MichaelMoore.com:

I believe that the President must be held accountable for his actions. This past November, the American people affirmed through the ballot their dissatisfaction with the Administration and, in particular, its policies in Iraq.

I have been a steadfast opponent of the President’s Iraq policy. His administration has not been forthcoming with the American people and Congress has failed to conduct effective oversight of the executive branch. That’s why I am a cosponsor of Congressman Conyers' legislation, H. Res. 635, to create a select Congressional committee to examine the Administration’s conduct in prosecuting the Iraq war.

In the New Year, Democrats will gain control of the House of Representatives. Mr. Conyers is slated to chair the Judiciary Committee. I am ready to follow his lead on the issue.
-- Congresswoman Diane E. Watson
