Congresswoman Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) today released the following statement after former President Donald Trump was convicted on all 34 felony charges by a jury in New York:

“Today marks a solemn and unprecedented moment in American history. A former President — and the leading Republican nominee for President — has been fairly tried by a jury of his peers and convicted on 34 felony counts. This process, and the trials to come, has reaffirmed that no one is above the law. I am grateful for the fortitude and courage of the jurors who spent many long days fulfilling their civic duty. While our country is facing many challenges, now is a moment to have some faith in our democracy and this important exercise of the rule of law.”
