"I would really say to you that the Democratic Caucus is unified on two critical points. One is that we must hold this president accountable, that no one is above the law, that the president cannot continue to cover up and prevent us from getting to the truth, and secondly, that in addition to holding him accountable, that we need to continue to deliver on the important priorities that the American people elected us to focus on. Driving down the cost of health care. Taking on the high cost of prescription drugs. Rebuilding the infrastructure of our country. Raising family incomes and taking on the corruption in Washington. We've passed over 100 pieces of legislation consistent with that agenda that will improve people's lives. We've got to continue to do that."
