Republican Ohio state Rep. John Becker has officially filed 12 articles of impeachment against Republican Gov. Mike DeWine.
Three other Republican state representatives have joined with Becker.
“Governor DeWine’s mismanagement, malfeasance, misfeasance, abuse of power and other crimes include, but are not limited to, meddling in the conduct of a presidential primary election, arbitrarily closing and placing curfews on certain businesses, while allowing other businesses to remain open,” a portion of a press release from Becker’s office declares.
“He weaponized the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation to bully and harass businesses and the people; to enforce a statewide mask mandate and other controversial measures of dubious ‘value,’ making Ohio a hostile work environment.”
“Additionally, Governor DeWine had the further audacity to include congregants at places of worship, forcing citizens to choose between worshipping their God and worshipping at the altar of unbridled government,” another part of the release states.
