"content": "Some Senators are thinking that when Senate retreats to discuss or investigate this matter, they will be operating as a normal debate. That cannot be further from the truth. If the Plenary is not good enough, then the Special Committee is not good enough. If the Special Committee is good, then the Plenary is good enough because the Special Committee will be drawn from the same body of Senators. It is not outsiders coming in here. It is the same group of Senators. When it is in the Plenary, it gives an opportunity to many more Senators to bring in their perspective, raise all the questions, interrogate the matter that is before the House and it brings a richness that comes from the diversity of the number of Senators who will be sitting here. That is why I stand to oppose that Motion and say that both should be treated equally. What the Plenary or the Special Committee will need to do is to observe what is provided for under Article 50 of the Constitution to render a fair process to the governor when she appears here and to those who are complaining against the governor. For those reasons, I oppose."
