'You need to do more!' Senator yelled at by irate town hall attendee



Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) faced angry town hall attendees on Friday afternoon back home, with one attendee demanding he "do more" to impeach President Donald Trump.

One woman CNN showed in a video asked Ossoff why there were no calls for Trump to be impeached. Rep. Al Green (D-TX) announced on April 5 that he would submit his articles of impeachment in "30 days."

To be impeached by Congress, Green would need the support of a majority of the members, and the Speaker of the House would have to agree to bring it up for a vote. Currently, the House is controlled by Republicans.

"We need him impeached! We need him removed!" the attendee shouted, wagging her finger at Ossoff.

"There is no doubt that this president's conduct has already exceeded any prior standard for impeachment by the United States House of Representatives," said Ossoff. "I agree with you. But as I said at the beginning, I also have no choice but to be candid with you about the situation that we face and the tools that are at our disposal. As strongly as I agree with you, ma'am, and I regret if this is an unwelcome response, but my job is to be honest with you. The only way to achieve what you want to achieve is to have a majority in the United States House of Representatives."

Ossoff is up for election next year.
