Republican Lawmakers Plan to Force Vote on Impeaching President Biden

Two Republican representatives, Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene, are planning to try to force a vote on impeaching Democratic President Joe Biden in the US House of Representatives.

The resolution to impeach Biden for allegedly violating his oath by failing to secure the US-Mexico border against the synthetic opioid drug, fentanyl, has little chance of advancing in the Republican-controlled House, as multiple Republicans predict opponents will have the votes to stop the measure from coming to the floor.

The efforts are seen as retribution after Biden's predecessor, Republican Donald Trump, was twice impeached by the then-Democratic-controlled House.
