Luján, who will leave the Chamber to stand for Senate seat in 2020, said he was confident that Russia's efforts to interfere in the US elections would continue in the 2020 cycle. .

Trump, he said, "did not act", making the launch of a dismissal investigation a necessary step "to reveal the facts to the American people and hold the president accountable."

"The Trump presidency raises serious concerns about national security," Luján said in a statement. "Not only did he ignore the warnings that our democracy is targeted, but he also actively encouraged Russian interference."

Earlier this month, the number of Democrats in the House officially supporting the indictment increased to constitute the majority of the caucus. Luján's approval brings the figure to 123 and, as the president's assistant, he becomes the highest democrat to have supported the process – a distinction that previously held Rep.

But Democratic leaders have avoided voting for the launch of an official imputation inquiry, citing the lack of support from voters and Republicans at Capitol Hill.

Luján said he was "alarmed" by reading Mueller's report, which revealed "unacceptable … behavior on the part of a president." He is worried, he said, that Trump is not doing enough to ensure that the 2016 election interference does not resurface next year.

"The inaction of President Trump jeopardizes our elections, our national security and our democracy," said Luján. "What is obvious is that President Trump renounces his responsibility to defend our country from Russian attacks and puts his personal and political interests ahead of the American people."
