Minnesota Republican lawmakers introduced resolutions to impeach Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison.
The resolutions claim corrupt conduct by the two Democratic politicians.
“MN Freedom Caucus ends week one with a BIG announcement. Our Freedom Caucus House members just filed articles of impeachment for Tim Walz & Keith Ellison. Time to hold the real frauds accountable,” Minnesota Freedom Caucus stated.

KVRR shared further:
The resolution accuses Walz of “violating his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the laws of this state” and cites his response to the state’s fraud cases.
An impeachment is unlikely since it requires a majority vote in the House.
This is not the first attempt by Republican lawmakers to impeach Walz.
A resolution to impeach the Democratic governor was introduced in 2021 over his COVID-19 emergency declaration.
According to FOX 9, the resolution to impeach Ellison accuses him of “undermining” the FACE Act by “defending the anti-ICE protesters and journalists who protested at a St. Paul church.”

FOX 9 has more:
The Minnesota Constitution allows for impeachment on the grounds of “corrupt conduct in office or for crimes and misdemeanors.”
Given the party balance in both the House and the Senate, an impeachment of Walz and Ellison seems unlikely.
An impeachment requires a majority vote in the House. If successful, the impeached official is suspended and the case moves to the senate for trial.
In the Minnesota Senate, a supermajority vote, or two-thirds vote, is required for conviction and removal from office.
Currently, the Minnesota House is split evenly between Republicans and Democrats, meaning every Republican would need to vote for impeachment and at least one DFL member would need to flip sides.
In the Senate, Democrats hold a one-seat majority.
It’s worth pointing out Gov. Walz ended his campaign for re-election in January while Ellison is seeking a third term as attorney general.
