Ohio House Speaker Bob Cupp, a Republican, said he opposed the effort by fellow GOP members to oust Gov. Mike DeWine from office.
“Having now had time to read and consider the draft resolution to impeach the Governor announced by a couple of members, it is clear to me that it is an imprudent attempt to escalate important policy disagreements with the governor into a state constitutional crisis. Even serious policy disagreements do not rise to the level of impeachment under our constitution,” Cupp said in a statement this week, Ohio news outlets reported.
