So has Lauren Underwood (D-IL), freshman representative, as of yesterday. Not my district, but one that flipped from R to D last election. What's interesting to me is that Underwood seems to be pretty moderate in a lot of things, and her district contains not only quite a large, well-to-do suburb, but stretches into fairly rural Illinois.
My own representative (another suburban IL district that flipped R to D) called for the inquiry in June. Again, a pretty moderate, middle-of-the-road district.
I think both have called for a relatively cautious approach, which seems reasonable to me. As I've repeatedly said, if impeachment occurs I would want it to follow the Watergate bipartisan approach rather than the Clinton impeachment, which to me was pretty much of a farce on all sides. Not that there weren't grounds, IMO - but there was no successful strategy plan in place.
that said, I wish so much in my head Pence would uphold his oath of office and start proceedings involving the 25th amendment, although that would also be incredibly chaotic.

What's the magic number to start the impeachment inquiry? I feel like we must be getting close.

This is pretty wild. A federal court has ruled that it's unconstitutional to remove an elector or nullify their vote if they don't vote according to their state's popular vote.

Finally got my butt back to a Moms Demand meeting tonight. We called Senator Portman’s office and 35 of us screamed “do something” at his voicemail. It was very satisfying, lol.

The Denver Post is reporting that Hickenlooper is now running for Senate. I didn't love him as a Presiential candidate but I like him a lot more for Senate.
