On Jan. 7th, the office of New Mexico State Senator Jerry Ortiz y Pino contacted IFP in order to consult us on some of the deeper aspects of the process of impeachment in an effort to start the resolution process in their State. We sent them information regarding historical precedent, the rules of the U.S. House of Representatives, and a copy of another State's draft resolution, and let them know we would offer any additional support they need. Then, on Jan. 12th the news broke that Senator Ortiz was pursuing the legislation. We certainly hope the information IFP provided helped in encouraging the Senator, and will continue to supply any addtional support we can. We also encourage any other State representative to contact IFP regarding any possible future impeachment resolutions. Congratulations New Mexico!More:
