Rep. Mark Amodei supports the House’s inquiry into whether President Donald Trump should be impeached, but is withholding judgment on whether Trump has crossed the legal line.

“Let’s put it through the process and see what happens,” Amodei, the only Republican in the state’s congressional delegation, said on a call Friday with reporters, adding that he believes Congress is justified to look into the matter.

“I’m a big fan of oversight, so let’s let the committees get to work and see where it goes,” he added. (An audio recording of the call has been posted below.)

“Using government agencies to, if it’s proven, to put your finger on the scale of an election, I don’t think that’s right,” he continued. “If it turns out that it’s something along those lines, then there’s a problem.”

1. Won re-election by 17 points in 2018.

Four-term Republican Congressman. This seems like a big deal!

2. He supports the inquiry, not impeachment.

That's a rather important distinction.

3. Please fix your OP headline

He supports the impeachment inquiry, not impeachment. As your posted excerpt states clearly.
