Necn – A small Vermont town passed an advisory resolution calling on Congress to look into whether sufficient grounds exist to pursue an impeachment of President Donald Trump.
“It’s the first time I ever made a motion,” said Susan Ohanian, a retired teacher who introduced the advisory resolution at the Town Meeting Day gathering in Charlotte.
Ohanian said she believes President Trump’s many business holdings mean he’s improperly profiting off the office of the president.
“It puts us in a very precarious position,” Ohanian warned.
Her resolution came on Vermont’s traditional Town Meeting Day, when communities gather to discuss budgets and other local issues.
In Charlotte, a community of fewer than 4,000, whether to raise taxes for a network of recreation trails actually saw far more interest than presidential politics.
“We do the little things and we do the big things, because we are a part of the United States as well as being very concerned about what happens locally,” Ohanian observed.
Ohanian’s advisory resolution requesting that Congress look into whether sufficient grounds exist for the impeachment of President Trump passed on a voice vote.
