Amid myriad calls for impeachment proceedings from Democrats and those resisting President Donald Trump, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is urging Democrats to "show the American people we are proceeding free from passion or prejudice," according to The Hill.
"While our views range from proceeding to investigate the findings of the Mueller report or proceeding directly to impeachment, we all firmly agree that we should proceed down a path of finding the truth," the Speaker wrote in a letter Monday to Democrats, seeking to curtail rabid partisanship in targeting the president.
"It is also important to know that the facts regarding holding the president accountable can be gained outside of impeachment hearings."
After the release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report last week, Democrats' interpreted Mueller's writings to be a "roadmap" for impeachment. Speaker Pelosi's letter stressed to stick to "presentation of fact" and avoid reacting with "passion or prejudice."
"As we proceed to uncover the truth and present additional needed reforms to protect our democracy, we must show the American people we are proceeding free from passion or prejudice, strictly on the presentation of fact," her letter concluded, per The Hill.
