From The Daily Record:
An attempt to impeach Maryland’s attorney general devolved into a House of Delegates debate on parliamentary rules, leaving discussion of the impeachment itself to a House committee hearing later Wednesday afternoon.
Del. Don H. Dwyer Jr., R-Anne Arundel, has for months threatened to impeach Attorney General Doug Gansler after Gansler in January issued an opinion advising state agencies to recognize legal same-sex marriages in other states.
The opinion usurped the lawmaking power of the General Assembly, Dwyer bellowed on the House floor.
