President Joe Biden has a lot of jobs, but worrying about impeachment isn't one of them.
That's the message the White House conveyed Monday when it was asked by a reporter about impeachment talk coming from the Republican-led House of Representatives."The House speaker said yesterday that moving toward impeachment now is 'a natural step forward and would be an opportunity for Congress to get all the information they need,'" a reporter said.
Those issues, Jean-Pierre added, include access to high-quality education, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington, lowering healthcare costs, and responding to disasters like the wildfires in Hawaii and pending hurricane damage in Florida. However, she also said Biden hopes to work with McCarthy on bipartisan issues when possible.
Jean-Pierre responded by saying that the Biden administration is, in fact, encouraging agencies to work with Congress."That's something we always urge," she said."I can't speak to what they're complaining about. What I can speak to is what the president is focused on. We want to work in a bipartisan way with congressional Republicans."
