Congressman Joe Wilson issued the following statement on voting against impeachment:
“The horrific violence that took place at the Capitol last week should never be repeated. American leadership should not divide our country but instead unite it. President Donald Trump has agreed to a peaceful transition of power and impeaching a president so close to a new administration impedes that process and only serves to further divide our country. President-elect Joe Biden will take office next week and I look forward to working with him for the good of South Carolina and the United States.”
