Members of the Lehigh County Republican Committee this week condemned U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey’s against-the-grain vote to convict former President Donald Trump at his second impeachment trial.
“The censure resolution was based on a violation of the U.S. Constitution to have an impeachment trial of the former president without a presiding chief justice,” committee Executive Director Robert Arena told lehighvalleylive.com.
