In a partisan vote of 7-4, the House Rules Committee approved the legislation, setting it up for consideration by the full House. The legislation already has spawned a bitter debate between Republicans and Democrats less than four months before elections that will determine the political control of Congress next year.
The lawsuit, if approved by the full House, would focus on Obama’s actions in implementing his landmark healthcare law known as “Obamacare.”
Republicans claim that he went beyond his legal authority and bypassed Congress when he delayed some of the law’s healthcare coverage mandates and granted various waivers.
Republicans have been trying to repeal the healthcare law since its enactment in 2010.
why sue – JUST IMPEACH – Nixon erased 18 minutes of tape and was impeached – Obama destroyed months of emails and …………….
Among other things in the Bill of Impeachment before the house was his ordering the secret invasion of Cambodia. In those days we thought it wrong for a president to start wars for no good reason.
