Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) released the following statement after the White House released the full transcript of President Trump's call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky:

"The transcript reveals that Democrats have, once again, rushed to judgment without the facts. There was no quid pro quo, no mention of withholding military aid, and no impeachable offense. The other side of the aisle is so blinded by their hatred for the President that they can't accept the truth. Each "smoking gun" has actually been an accusation devoid of any legitimate evidence. The real danger here is the degradation of our chamber. Partisan antics have turned this legislative institution into a circus focused on impeachment and non-binding resolutions."
