In brief
Republican congressman Thomas Massie has reintroduced a resolution to impeach US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, UNIAN reports, citing ABC News. Removing him would also require a two-thirds Senate vote.
Massie has brought the impeachment resolution back before the US House of Representatives, UNIAN reported on November 9, citing ABC News. The report did not specify when he reintroduced it or give a voting result.
According to UNIAN’s account of ABC News reporting, House Speaker Mike Johnson blocked an earlier attempt in September. Lawmakers must return to the resolution within two working days, the report said. Massie expects support from Democrats and some Republicans.
UNIAN said the resolution would require a House majority, while removing Hegseth would require support from two-thirds of the Senate. Introducing the resolution does not itself impeach or remove him.
Hegseth said he was unconcerned by the impeachment attempts and planned a press conference on the subject for Tuesday, November 10, according to UNIAN.
