Progressive DA Krasner Sues Assembly Panel Considering His Impeachment

Pennsylvania state Republicans have concerns that Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner's progressive policies connected to Philadelphia's high crime.

  • Krasner has filed lawsuit against the committee, after the panel issued a subpoena to him that he called “illegal” and “anti-democratic.”
  • Concerns about Krasner’s policies follow San Francisco voters ousting their progressive district attorney and the more-recent-but-failed attempt in Los Angeles.
  • Critics say such policies as ending cash-only bail and not prosecuting lower-level crimes have led to an increase in crime across the country.
  • Krasner is trying in the suit to nullify the subpoena and stop the committee from further action.
