Detroit City Council Passes Impeachment Resolution
Submitted by David Swanson on Wed, 2007-05-16 17:38.


A resolution calling on the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach President Bush and Vice President Cheney was passed today by the unanimous vote of the Detroit City Council. The resolution was recommended by the Detroit & Michigan Chapter of the National Lawyers Guild ( http://www.michigannlg.org ) in coalition with other citizen activist organizations, including Latinos Unidos, Veterans for Peace, Michigan Welfare Rights Organization, the Gray Panthers and MI Impeach.org ( http://www.miimpeach.org ).

The Co-Sponsors of the resolution were Council President Pro Tempore Monica Conyers and Council Member JoAnn Watson, and passed in the Name of Full Council. Conyers' husband, Rep. John Conyers, chairs the U.S. House Judiciary Committee.

Here is a list of other cities that have already taken this step: http://impeachpac.org/resolutions-list

The text of the resolution is here: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/node/22543

Well, at least one member of the Conyers family clearly wants impeachment on the f'ing table!!!
