Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that she would sign on to a resolution calling for an investigation into whether President Trump should be impeached, citing special counsel Robert Mueller's report in her decision-making.
"Mueller's report is clear in pointing to Congress' responsibility in investigating obstruction of justice by the President," she tweeted.
"It is our job as outlined in Article 1, Sec 2, Clause 5 of the US Constitution," the progressive lawmaker added. "As such, I'll be signing onto @RashidaTlaib's impeachment resolution."

Fellow freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) last month introduced a resolution calling for an investigation by the House Judiciary Committee into whether Trump committed impeachable offenses. Tlaib said at the time that she hopes the resolution "ensures we don't have a lawless society that results in irreparable harm to the American people."

who used that way too much.

some of us for example use "arguably" a lot, a word I like to use because it gives me an out to change my mind in the future...
