Impeachment in Washington State House as Well as Senate

A DOUBLE HEADER IN WASHINGTON STATE!
By Linda Boyd, www.washingtonforimpeachment.org

Washington For Impeachment is delighted to announce that
Representative Maralyn Chase will introduce a bill calling

for the impeachment of George Bush and Dick Cheney in the
Washington State House of Representatives. The full text of
House Joint Memorial 4027 will be accessible online on
January 16th on the House website: Access Washington.

Representative Chase should be commended for her response
to a resolution supporting impeachment from her legislative
district. She works with the full support of her constituents.

PUBLIC HEARING ON THURSDAY:

The public hearing for State Senator Eric Oemig's bill,
SJM 8016 is scheduled for this Thursday,
January 17, 3:30 p.m.,
room 2 of the Cherberg Bldg. on the
State Capitol Campus in Olympia.

SJM 8016-2007-08, updated by Senator Oemig, calls on Congress to
conduct a full investigation and trial for the President and
Vice President. The bill, first introduced Feb. 15, 2007, was
heard before the Senate Government, Operations and Elections

Committee on March 31, 2007, with over 500 impeachment
supporters at the capitol that day.

In a vast improvement over last year, Senator Oemig's Bill to

impeach Bush and Cheney will be heard in the
Senate Government Operations and Elections Committee
in the first week of the session.
Last year, the bill was heard one day after the cutoff date,

and didn't move out of committee.

Momentum for impeachment in Washington State continues to expand
with public disclosures of destruction of torture tapes,
intelligence from the NIE reporting that Iran does not possess
nuclear weapons, and continued belligerence towards Iran.
More that 1,200 protesters turned out in downtown Bellevue in
August to protest George Bush's visit.

Washington For Impeachment, Citizens to Impeach Bush and Cheney,
and a broad coalition of citizen's groups are working closely to
achieve a significant victory for democracy.
