Congressman Paul Tonko from New York’s 20th District on Monday became the latest Democrat to support an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.

As more House Democrats and one Republican back impeachment proceedings, Tonko explained to WAMC’s Southern Adirondack Bureau Chief Lucas Willard that last week’s announcement from special prosecutor Robert Mueller caused him to call for action.

Lucas Willard is the Executive Producer of WAMC's Northeast Notebook. After joining the station in 2011, Lucas has held several titles at WAMC, including Berkshire Bureau Chief, Southern Adirondack Bureau Chief, and Assistant News Director.
