This is VOA news. Via remote, I'm Liz Parker. The debate continues on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. over a Democratic-led effort to remove President Donald Trump1 from office. Democratic lawmakers accuse him of inciting2 supporters who stormed and attacked the Capitol last week. They are urging the vice3 president, Mike Pence, to invoke4 the 25th Amendment5 that would allow him and the cabinet to remove the president from office. But now, multiple House of Representatives Republicans say they too will vote in favor of impeachment6. The third ranking House Republican leader, Liz Cheney of the state of Wyoming, announced she would vote for impeachment on Wednesday. She is joined by two other Republicans, Representative John Katko of the state of New York and Representative Adam Kinzinger of the state of Illinois. President Trump is to face a single impeachment charge - incitement8 of insurrection.

欢迎收听美国之音新闻。华盛顿特区国会山仍在围绕民主党主导的罢免总统特朗普这一决议进行辩论。民主党议员指责特朗普上周煽动支持者袭击国会大厦。他们敦促副总统迈克·彭斯援引宪法第25条修正案，即允许副总统和内阁解除总统职务。但现在，多名众议院共和党人表示，他们也将投票赞成弹劾。众议院第三位共和党领袖、怀俄明州的利兹·切尼宣布，她会在周三投票支持弹劾。另外两位共和党人，纽约州众议员约翰·卡特科和伊利诺伊州众议员亚当·金辛格也加入了弹劾的行列。特朗普总统将面临煽动暴动的弹劾指控。

Making his first public appearance Tuesday since last Wednesday's riot, President Trump defended the remarks he made to supporters at a rally before they stormed the center of the American government. And he also lambasted Democrats9 for pushing ahead with a drive to impeach7 him for an unprecedented10 second time. The president spoke11 to reporters as he left for a trip to the U.S. state of Texas Tuesday, saying "What I said was totally appropriate." He went on and said, "I want no violence." U.S. prosecutors12 are weighing sedition13 charges against at least some of the Trump loyalists who stormed the Capitol. The acting14 U.S. attorney in Washington, Michael Sherwin, says trespassing15 and other misdemeanor accounts against some of the dozens arrested so far may still be upgraded to sedition.

自上周三骚乱以来，特朗普总统于星期二首次公开露面，他为美国政府中心遇袭之前自己在集会上对支持者们说的话进行了辩护。他还痛斥民主党人推动对他进行史无前例的第二次弹劾。特朗普星期二启程前往美国得克萨斯州访问时对记者表示：“我说的话完全合适。”他接着说：“我不想要暴力。”美国检方正在斟酌针对至少部分冲击国会大厦的特朗普忠诚支持者们发起煽动叛乱指控。华盛顿的代理美国检察官迈克尔·舍温表示，针对目前被捕的几十人中的部分抗议者，他们的罪名可能会从非法侵入和其他轻罪升级为煽动叛乱。您可以通过网址voanews.com浏览到更多相关报道。欢迎收听美国之音新闻。
