U.S. Rep. André Carson to Co-Sponsor Impeachment Against Trump
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — U.S. Representative André Carson has announced his decision to co-sponsor articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump after initially voting to table the impeachment measure. Carson’s support comes after he expressed concern that the impeachment resolution was presented to the House floor without adequate time for members to review it.
In a social media post, the Democrat from Indianapolis stated, "Yesterday, an impeachment resolution was brought to the floor before most Members had a chance to review the measure. Today, I was able to carefully review the resolution — and I have now requested to be one of the first cosponsors on articles to impeach Donald Trump."
Tuesday’s House vote saw a resounding majority favor the tabling of the impeachment effort, which accused Trump of abuse of power related to unauthorized military strikes on Iran. This initiative, introduced by Rep. Al Green of Texas, sparked limited debate and showcased a split within the Democratic Party, as the majority sided with Republicans to halt the measure. The final count was 344-79, with numerous Democrats still supporting Green’s endeavor.
