Democrats Seethe Over Trump Impeachment Move

Punchbowl News: “Two top Democratic leaders rebuked Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) over his decision to seek a vote on impeaching President Donald Trump during a pivotal legislative week.”

“House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Minority Whip Katherine Clark spoke with Thanedar on Tuesday.”

“Thanedar angered Democrats across the caucus because of the timing of his move — in the midst of the reconciliation markups full of hot-button issues like Medicaid and tax. Plus there’s the fact that such a vote could be politically toxic for battleground Democrats who need to court Trump voters.”
