The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives passed a resolution on Tuesday night condemning President Donald Trump for his "racist comments" about four Democratic congresswomen of color.
The resolution passed largely along party lines — 235 Democrats joined by only four Republican supported the measure — following hours of back-and-forth and gamesmanship between Republicans and Democrats, which included a GOP objection to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's remarks about Trump, and whether she would be allowed to keep speaking on the floor.
The four Republicans who voted in favor of the resolution, which "strongly condemns President Donald Trump’s racist comments that have legitimized and increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color," were Reps. Will Hurd of Texas, Fred Upton of Michigan, Susan Brooks of Indiana and Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania. Rep. Justin Amash, who announced his departure from the Republican Party earlier this month, also voted in favor of the resolution.
"These comments from the White House are disgraceful and disgusting and the comments are racist," Pelosi said as she first introduced the resolution condemning Trump's incendiary remarks about the congresswomen.
Also, Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, planned to read articles of impeachment against Trump on the House floor on Tuesday night in a bid to force a vote on the issue, which Democratic leaders have opposed.
Trump tweeted Sunday that, instead of criticizing his government, the four should"go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came."
