A longtime Democratic congressman whose district overwhelmingly voted in favor of President Donald Trump confirmed that he'll vote against articles of impeachment.

Rep. Collin Peterson (D-Minn.), the chairman of the House Agriculture Committee, told The Globe on Dec. 14 that unless he hears something that changes his mind this week, he won’t vote in favor of impeaching the president, joining Rep. Jeff Van Drew (D-N.J.), who also indicated he won’t vote for impeachment.
