Manglona walks out of Senate session

Share

Sen. Paul A. Manglona (Ind-Rota) walked out of the Senate’s special session this afternoon, Monday, that was intended to tackle the Impeachment Rules, after Senate president Jude U. Hofschneider (R-Tinian) asked him why he was talking without being recognized on the floor during the public comment portion and therefore intervening in the proceedings.

After a few minutes, Manglona came back and stood before the podium, but the microphone system had already been cut. Hofschneider then ordered a recess.

Hofschneider later adjourned the session.

More details to follow.
