In a letter to House Democrats sent Monday, Tlaib called on lawmakers to support the formation of a commission that would “inquire whether President Trump committed impeachable offenses” surrounding his businesses while in office and other alleged improper behavior.

“I, firmly, believe that the House Committee on Judiciary should seek out whether President Trump has committed ‘High crimes and Misdemeanors’ as designated by the U.S. Constitution and if the facts support those findings, that Congress begin impeachment proceedings,” Tlaib wrote.

“Congress can provide an open and transparent process with the sole goal of ensuring we know the truth and make sure it does not continue, nor happen again,” she added.

Barr announced this week that the Justice Department would not prosecute the president for obstruction of justice. Democrats, however, have called for a full release of the Mueller report, while the White House and Trump’s lawyers have echoed the sentiment.

“Sure,” Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani told CNN when asked if the report should be released. “We would all like it to happen because if it doesn’t happen, somebody is going to say there is something in there.”

“Let me say for the 400th time, the president did not do anything wrong,” he added.

Green said Mueller’s findings were unrelated to that “bigotry.” 

“#MuellersReport did NOT investigate bigotry emanating from the Presidency harming our country. The findings do NOT negate the President’s bigotry,” Green tweeted Sunday evening. “As long as bigotry influences the President’s policies, I will continue to seek his impeachment.”

He included a second hashtag: #ImpeachmentIsNotDead.
