Raskin introduces long-shot bill to assess president’s fitness under 25th Amendment

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, introduced a bill on Tuesday to establish a commission assessing the president's fitness for office under the 25th Amendment. This legislative effort follows calls from over 70 Democrats for President Trump’s removal after he issued threats against Iran. The bill aims to create a formal process for evaluating a sitting president's capacity to serve. While introduced, such a measure is considered a long-shot given the current political landscape. This action reflects ongoing concerns among some Democrats regarding the President's conduct and mental state.
