President Trump has issued a pardon to former Congressman Stephen Beyer.

The Indiana Republican had served nearly two years in prison for insider trading for trades made after he left office.

He says the pardon corrects a politically motivated prosecution.

Beyer was a House prosecutor during the 1998 impeachment trial of Democratic President Bill Clinton.

He said it was horrific to be imprisoned for a crime that he did not commit.
