Reps Seek To Impeach Whitmer
In a stunning turn of events, three Republican state representatives in the Michigan Legislature have filed Articles of Impeachment against Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. At issue are recent judgements out of Michigan, declaring Gov. Whitmer’s sweeping executive orders concerning COVID-19 pandemic emergency orders unconstitutional.
The orders were declared unconstitutional for two reasons, the first is that they exceeded the timeframe for the Emergency Measures Act of Michigan, that being 30 days. Secondly, they were declared unconstitutional in virtue of the fact that the Emergency Powers Act, in virtue of which the orders were issued, was itself declared to be unconstitutional, because it granted powers to the executive that were reserved for the Legislature.
The case more than likely won’t go anywhere, but here’s the entire breakdown from Viva Frei.
