House Judiciary Committee to Meet to Discuss Impeaching Bentley
On Wednesday, June 15, the Alabama House Judiciary Committee will meet on whether or not it should proceed with impeachment proceedings against Alabama Governor Robert Bentley (R).
State Representative Christopher John England (D-Tuscaloosa) said in a statement, “Pursuant to the rules adopted in the House in the final days of the last session, the House Judiciary Committee is now responsible for investigating allegations asserted in Articles of Impeachment and also making a recommendation to the full House as to whether or not cause exists to impeach the official.”
Rep. England said, “Before the end of the session, a resolution with 23 co-sponsors was passed that contained Articles of Impeachment for Governor Bentley charging him with willful neglect of duty and also corruption in office.” “As a result of the resolution being passed, the House Judiciary Committee will meet on June 15, at 10 AM to discuss and adopt rules for the impeachment investigation of Governor Bentley.”
Auditor Jim Zeigler (R) said in his own statement that, “impeachment proceedings take way too long.”
