U.S. Congressman Roger Marshall, M.D., and eight other Republican Members of Congress were denied access by Democratic staffers when attempting to enter a secure briefing room in the U.S. Capitol this morning to read the classified transcript of the testimony of former Ambassador Volker, with regards to supposed misconduct between the Trump Administration and the Ukrainian government.

Congressman Roger Marshall, M.D., issued the following statement after being denied access to the briefing room:

"This impeachment circus is outrageous. House Democrats are restricting access to the very documents they are basing this entire witch hunt on, and selectively leaking information to their anti-Trump cable news media friends. Democrats won't hold a vote on the impeachment inquiry, and they won't let Republicans see the information they are using to try to impeach President Trump. This is all a sham."
