U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow of Michigan says she thinks the House is doing the right thing by investigating President Trump and considering impeachment.

       

        Senator Stabenow is praising the push in the House for information on the president’s dealings with Ukraine. Saying, quote, “this is a president who has abused his power,” unquote, The Democrat is also critical of President Trump’s decision to pull troops out of Syria, a move she describes as an abandonment of America’s Kurdish allies in the region.

“We are seeing very dangerous actions coming from this president. They’re very erratic, and they have long-term implications for our country.”   0:12

       Stabenow says she’s also disappointed with Republicans in the Senate who don’t see the evidence as an abuse of power.

         None of the Republicans in Michigan’s congressional delegation support the impeachment inquiry.
