The second ranking Democrat in the House won’t join civil rights icon John Lewis’ boycott of the upcoming inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, but said he understands his colleague’s concerns with Trump.
Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md., was speaking at a rally to save Obamacare when a rallygoer interrupted him, calling for Hoyer to boycott the inauguration. The comments come after Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., questioned Donald Trump’s legitimacy and announced a boycott of the inauguration on Jan. 20.
