Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier is calling on Congress to launch an impeachment inquiry into a Biden-appointed federal judge over her past role working for the now-indicted Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).
In his Monday letter addressed to House Speaker Mike Johnson, House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, House Oversight Chair James Comer, and Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, Uthmeier requested that Republicans probe 11th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Nancy Abudu “to determine whether her service as a top attorney for the [SPLC] warrants her impeachment and removal” from the bench. Abudu had served as the far-left group’s deputy legal director and director for Strategic Litigation beginning in 2019, and the Senate confirmed her in May 2023.
“Only those of the highest character are fit to administer laws in this great Nation,” Uthmeier wrote. “In light of recent revelations concerning potential criminal conduct by SPLC, Judge Abudu’s leadership role within SPLC raises serious questions about what she knew and did and whether she should continue serving on the federal bench. As such, I strongly recommend that the House of Representatives and Senate take up their constitutional duty to serve as a check on the Judicial Branch.”
