Democrats in the U.S. House have stripped a freshman Georgia Republican of her committee assignments. Michigan's 12th District Congresswoman Debbie Dingell explains why she voted in favor of the disciplinary measure. Meantime, final preparations for Former President Donald Trump's second impeachment trial in the Senate are underway, and there's the COVID-19 relief package still to pass. Representative Dingell joined WEMU's David Fair to offer her view from the House floor.
