House to Read Kucinich Resolution on Impeachment Tonight

WASHINGTON, DC - June 10 -The Impeachment Resolution sponsored by Congressman Dennis Kucinich will be read into the Record by the Clerk of the House, tonight, beginning at approximately 7:15-7:30 pm. The required reading of the 35 Articles of Impeachment is expected to take up to 5 hours. Congressman Kucinich will be on the floor of the House during the reading. At the conclusion of the reading, Congressman Kucinich will rise and make a motion that the Impeachment Resolution be referred to committee. If a vote occurs on the matter it will be postponed until tomorrow. “It is imperative that Members of Congress have a thorough opportunity to read the Articles of Impeachment and study the documentation. When they do, I am confident that they will agree that it is both appropriate and necessary for the Judiciary Committee to begin hearings on the Resolution," Kucinich said. A copy of the Index of the Articles and the text of the Articles is attached. Supporting documentation will be sent in a separate email. ###
