| Description | Will the House of Delegates impeach Attorney General Doug Gansler?
That’s the question Del. Don Dwyer has promised to ask the House to consider Wednesday. Dwyer, a socially conservative Republican from Anne Arundel County, believes Gansler broke the law with his February opinion that Maryland courts would likely recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states, despite their prohibition in Maryland law.
The question that has stymied Dwyer, and will likely derail his attempt tomorrow is: Can the House of Delegates impeach an attorney general?
The answer so far is no. Who says so? The Attorney General’s office, which acts as counsel to the legislature. |
