Authorizes a House committee selected by the Speaker pursuant to House Rule 63 to introduce articles of impeachment against Secretary of State Denny Hoskins upon a finding of good cause
This Missouri House bill (HR 3879) authorizes a committee selected by the Speaker to introduce articles of impeachment against Secretary of State Denny Hoskins. It alleges he violated Missouri's constitution by unlawfully refusing to verify signatures on a referendum petition challenging a gerrymandered congressional map and by directing election officials to implement the new districts despite a constitutional requirement for voter approval. The bill cites his actions as misconduct, willful neglect of duty, and oppression in office under Article VII, Section 1 of the Missouri Constitution. The impeachment process would begin only if a committee finds "good cause" after investigation.
