Three Republicans in Michigan’s House of Representatives on Nov. 18 introduced a resolution to impeach Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, but the effort is opposed by the Republican leaders of both state chambers.

State Reps. Beau LaFave, Matt Maddock, and Daire Rendon offered the resolution, saying Whitmer should be impeached “for corrupt conduct in office and crimes and misdemeanors.”
