Congressman John Moolenaar has made a statement regarding his vote against the motion to vacate the Speaker of the House. In his statement, Moolenaar emphasized the importance of addressing the major issues facing the country, such as debt, spending, and the crisis at the southern border.

Moolenaar expressed his concerns about the consequences of vacating the chair and partnering with liberal Democrats to remove the Speaker. He believes that such a move would paralyze the House of Representatives and give President Biden and the Democrats free rein to advance their agenda without any opposition.

Instead of focusing on removing the Speaker, Moolenaar stated that he is committed to fighting President Biden's disastrous agenda by uniting Republicans and passing legislation that benefits the country. He highlighted the need to secure the country's borders and assist Michigan families who are struggling with the costs of inflation caused by the Biden administration.

In his own words, Moolenaar said, "I am focused on fighting Biden’s disastrous agenda by uniting Republicans and passing legislation that makes our country better by securing the country’s borders and helping Michigan families who are struggling with the costs of Biden’s inflation."

Moolenaar's decision to vote against the motion to vacate the Speaker of the House reflects his dedication to conservative principles and his desire to effectively address the pressing issues facing the nation.
