Rep. Jaime Herrera-Beutler, who represents Washington's 3rd congressional district, was one of just 10 Republicans in the U.S. House to vote to impeach former president Donald Trump. She sat down for a candid conversation with Billy Hallowell about faith, truth and the importance of putting Jesus before anything else. In this candid discussion, she explains the events of January 6, how she reacted and why — even though she voted for Trump, she felt compelled to vote for impeachment.
This powerful interview offers a rare lens into the life and faith of a member of Congress, shedding light on the difficult decision to place what one believes is right over the will of a political party or even political aspirations. Regardless of whether one agrees with Herrera-Beutler's decision, it's clear that a lot is on the line for her. Still, she is resolute that "truth is truth" and that faith and truth must drive our decisions — not political whims.
