Oklahoma introduces measure to impeach Obama over bathroom rights
OKLAHOMA CITY | BY HEIDE BRANDES
Oklahoma's Republican-dominated legislature has filed a measure calling for President Barack Obama's impeachment over his administration's recommendations on accommodating transgender students, saying he overstepped his constitutional authority.
Lawmakers in the socially conservative state are also expected to take up a measure as early as Friday that would allow students to claim a religious right to have separate but equal bathrooms and changing facilities to segregate them from transgender students.
The bill introduced on Thursday night could force schools into costly construction, which would be difficult for them to complete after lawmakers significantly cut education funding to plug a $1.3 billion state budget shortfall.
The impeachment resolution also introduced on Thursday night calls on the Oklahoma members of the U.S. House of Representatives to file articles of impeachment against Obama, the U.S. attorney general, the U.S. secretary of education and others over the letter.

(2,522 posts)This quote, "Why dont (sic) they just wait a few months, when BoB stays home in Nov and Drumpf is elected" is a recurring theme with you. The term "BoB" is at best off-putting and appears to be meant as an insult. I am asking do you intend to insult people?
