Minnesota Republicans Move to Impeach Walz, AG Ellison

Minnesota Republicans are preparing to pursue impeachment against Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, both Democrats, by introducing two House resolutions accusing the two top statewide Democrats of misconduct related to allegations of fraud and law enforcement controversies.

GOP lawmakers filed House Resolution 6 seeking Walz’s impeachment and House Resolution 7 targeting Ellison. The measures allege “corrupt conduct” and, in Ellison’s case, accuse him of “crimes and misdemeanors,” according to what was read on the chamber floor this week.
