Quigley Statement on Indictment of Donald Trump

Today, U.S. Representative Mike Quigley (IL-05), a member of the first impeachment panel of Donald Trump, released the following statement on a Manhattan grand jury’s vote to indict former President Trump:

“No one is above the law, not even a former president.

“I spent more than half a decade in Congress as part of investigations into the crimes and misdeeds of Donald Trump. I am not surprised that the justice system has finally caught up with him. While the indictment of a former president is unprecedented, the historic nature of this moment matches the historic nature of Trump’s transgressions. 

“Let us remember that Donald Trump is still under investigation for several other possible crimes, including some that were much more damaging to our national security and our democracy. He must be held accountable for his actions.”
