HARRISBURG, PA , May 8, 2014  – The Pennsylvania House State Government Committee  convened on Tuesday  to discuss a resolution to impeach Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane after she declared she would not defend the state’s marriage amendment. At the hearing, Democratic legislators quickly called a vote to adjourn.  When their movement failed, all ten Democrats strode out of the room in protest , leaving Rep.
