HOLDING THIS ADMINISTRATION TO ACCOUNT
(Ms. STANSBURY asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. STANSBURY. Mr. Speaker, Donald Trump says that he isn't sure if
he needs to uphold the Constitution. It is clear to all of us from his
attacks on the courts, the rule of law, our democratic institutions,
our civil and legal rights, an open and free press, the dismantling of
Federal agencies, and attacks on our communities that, indeed, he does
not know what his constitutional duties are.
I have to say, Mr. Speaker, we are a nation of laws, a nation
governed by a Constitution of the people and by the people. Donald
Trump and his administration are not above the law. We will hold them
to account, and that is why we are here every day fighting back,
pushing back, and defending our democracy and the rights of the
American people.
