Robert Wexler (D-FL) took to the House floor to urge the House Judiciary Committee to begin impeachment hearings into Vice President Cheney for &#8220;high crimes and misdemeanors.&#8221; [During which, Wexler specifically mentions Impeach for Peace&#8217;s contributions to the process!] Wexler, who has already acquired nearly 190,000 supporters through his website, explained his next steps:<\/p>\n<pre><code>&lt;table summary=\"Impeach Bush\" width=\"100%\" border=\"3\" align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"3\" cellspacing=\"3\"&gt;\n&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;Tomorrow, I will deliver these names to my colleagues on the Judiciary Committee with a letter to my friend, Chairman Conyers, calling for hearings. I will ask my colleagues to sign this letter \"\u00a6 Continuing every day for months, I will publish in the Congressional Record several thousand names of supporters who signed up.\n\nHistory demands that we take action, because the case against Vice President Cheney is far stronger than the illegality surrounding Watergate.&lt;\/td&gt;&lt;\/tr&gt;&lt;\/table&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>&#8220;In the history of our nation, we have never encountered a moment where the actions of a President or a Vice President have more strongly demanded the use of the power of impeachment,&#8221;\u009d Wexler said last night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[122,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4486","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bush_era","category-impeachment-events"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>[Video] Wexler Demands Impeachment Hearings on U.S. House Floor &#8226; Impeach for Peace<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Citizen&#039;s impeach strategy.
