Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, said she thinks the impeachment managers who were just approved through a House vote are “a great team.”

“I think it’s a great team… I think what’s most important now is that we have a very clear message about not only what we are already learned in the House that clearly shows that the President abused his power and obstructed Congress but also that the evidence that’s coming out now is showing very clearly that this was a personal mission for the President to collect dirt on an opponent,” Jayapal said.

Rep. Mike Quigley, a member of the House Intelligence Committee, also said he thinks Pelosi has a “good team.”

“She has a good team and she would have had a good team no matter who she picked,” he said.

Quigley said he thinks the team will be led by House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff.

Rep. Anthony Brown said “sure there’s probably some disappointed,” when asked if there were any hurt feelings after the impeachment manager team announcement.

“It’s an honor to be a House manager, to serve on behalf of the American people, something that’s only happened now three times in American history,” Brown said.

“We’ve got a great seven-person team,” he said.
