Iowa: Petition calls for end to judicial impeachment move

Sioux City Journal: The petition urges lawmakers “to end any conversation about impeaching Supreme Court justices,” she said. The signers of the online petition “believe it’s a waste of time to be talking about impeachment. It’s not an appropriate action to be considering.” Ever since voters ousted Chief Justice Marsha Ternus and two other justices in November, social conservatives have been talking of impeaching the four remaining members who concurred in the unanimous 2009 Varnum v. Brien decision that struck down the state’s ban on same-sex marriage.
