Beshear Calls Out Signers of Impeachment Petition
By The Associated Press
FRANKFORT - Kentucky's governor has singled out some signers of a petition seeking his impeachment.
Gov. Andy Beshear says one signer helped organize a rally where he was hanged in effigy.
He says another signer posted a video warning God would strike him down for applying COVID-19 restrictions to churches.
Beshear called out the two petition signers Tuesday.
A day earlier, the GOP-led state House formed a committee to review the petition.
It calls for the Democratic governor's impeachment for lockdown orders meant to combat the pandemic.
The petition was submitted by four Kentuckians.
