The firestorm continues a week after allegations that Alabama Governor Robert Bentley had an affair with top advisor Rebekah Mason, who resigned Wednesday. While Bentley and Mason deny an affair, he did admit to making inappropriate comments to her.
The state legislature may be on Spring Break this week, the scandal is still top-of-mind among legislators. A Republican lawmaker says he’ll try to start impeachment proceedings against Bentley as soon as possible. Don Dailey, host of Capitol Journal on Alabama public television, explains how impeachment proceedings would work, and discusses an effort to recall the governor.
