Description

Senator Mike Lee threatens impeachment of Judge Indira Talwani over her ruling blocking a provision in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which aimed to cut federal Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood in twenty-two states. The judges decision, based on potential constitutional overreach, has sparked strong reactions from Republican lawmakers. Lee, a former assistant U.S. attorney, criticized the ruling, suggesting it could be impeachable. Legal experts note the high bar for removing a federal judge, while Planned Parenthood welcomed the decision, arguing the law was unconstitutional and dangerous.
