US EditionHouse Republican Introduces Impeachment Articles Against Jocelyn Benson
- State Rep. James DeSana, a Republican from Carleton, introduced articles of impeachment against Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson on June 3, 2025.
- The impeachment attempt comes after months of disputes regarding Benson's management of election documents and her decision not to release all materials requested under subpoena by the Republican-controlled House.
- DeSana alleges Benson committed corrupt conduct, constitutional violations, abused power, and issued unlawful election directives that undermined public trust in elections.
- DeSana described Benson's violations as severe and called for accountability, while Benson's campaign called the attacks "baseless" and politically motivated against the 2026 gubernatorial frontrunner.
- If the House approves the articles, the Senate would hold a trial, but conviction is unlikely due to its Democratic majority, making this impeachment an escalation in a prolonged political feud.
