Freshman Representative Rashida Tlaib has introduced a measure in Congress asking the House Judiciary Committee to investigate whether President Trump committed an impeachable offense.
According to Fox News:
Freshman Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib unveiled a resolution Wednesday pushing for the potential impeachment of President Trump — pressing ahead despite the findings of the Robert Mueller probe.
Rep. Tlaib, D-Mich., submitted the resolution which calls on the House Judiciary Committee to probe whether or not the president committed any offenses that rise to the level of impeachment.
The resolution’s text states it is, “Inquiring whether the House of Representatives should impeach Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America.”
The controversial freshman’s measure included the support of just one other Democrat, Texas Rep. Al Green.
This runs counter to the majority of Democrats attempting to distance themselves from impeachment talk now that the Mueller report has been submitted and collusion seems unlikely.
