WASHINGTON, DC – Representative Kevin Hern (OK-01) released the following statement in support of H.Res. 832, a censure of Speaker Pelosi’s actions during the State of the Union address. 

“Speaker Pelosi has never been interested in working with President Trump,” said Rep. Hern. “That much has always been crystal clear. She takes every opportunity to make petty displays of her hatred of our President, most recently by ripping up his speech following his State of the Union address. President Trump painted the picture of a strong economy and an optimistic outlook for the future, recognized the service of a Tuskegee Airman, surprised a young student with education opportunities through his support of school choice programs, reunited a family with their military father & husband as he returned from Afghanistan, honored veterans & families who have paid the price of the opioid epidemic. In response, Pelosi literally ripped those moments to shreds. This immature behavior is unacceptable from the Speaker of the House of Representatives. We stand together to hold her accountable for her actions.”
