众议院议员海梅·埃雷拉·比尤特勒的书面证词。——十名投票弹劾前总统的众议院共和党人之一唐纳德·特朗普在周六的弹劾审判中被接受为证据，而不是进一步听取证人的证词。
周六早些时候，众议院弹劾负责人、医学博士杰米·拉斯金(Jamie Raskin)打电话传唤埃雷拉·比尤特勒(Herrera Beutler)，因为她周五在推特上发布了一份声明，重申了她在与众议院少数党领袖凯文·麦卡锡就特朗普参与国会大厦围攻一事进行的谈话中发表的评论。
参议院周六以55票对45票听取证人的证词，但随后特朗普法律团队和众议院弹劾经理达成协议，承认埃雷拉·比尤特勒的陈述为证据，不要求进一步的证人。
在Herrera Beutler的声明中，她重申了她早些时候向华盛顿报纸《每日新闻》发表的声明，即麦卡锡在1月6日暴徒袭击国会大厦时与特朗普交谈，但特朗普拒绝阻止他们。
埃雷拉·比尤特勒在结束发言时，要求那些对特朗普在国会大厦围攻期间的行动有第一手了解的人——包括前副总统迈克·彭斯——站出来。
她写道:“当这些对话发生时，站在前总统身边的爱国者，甚至前副总统:如果你有什么要补充的，现在是时候了。”
Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler's written testimony admitted into evidence in impeachment trial
The written testimony of Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Wash., -- one of ten House Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump -- was admitted into evidence in the impeachment trial on Saturday, instead of moving further with the process for hearing from witnesses.
Earlier Saturday, lead House impeachment manager Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., called to subpoena Herrera Beutler because she tweeted out a statement Friday reiterating comments she made about a talk she had with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy regarding Trump's involvement in the Capitol siege.
The Senate Saturday voted 55-45 to hear from witnesses, but then the Trump legal team and House impeachment managers came to the agreement to admit Herrera Beutler's statement into evidence and not request further witnesses.
In Herrera Beutler's statement, she reiterated her claims -- which she made earlier to Washington newspaper The Daily News -- that McCarthy spoke to Trump as rioters stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, but Trump refused to stop them.
Herrera Beutler ended her statement by challenging those with firsthand knowledge of Trump's actions during the Capitol siege -- including former Vice President Mike Pence -- to come forward.
"To the patriots who were standing next to the former president as these conversations were happening, or even to the former vice president: if you have something to add here, now would be the time," she wrote.
