From a publication called The Hill, a couple of hours ago:
In an unprecedented move, the National Association of Manufacturers released a statement on Wednesday supporting the proposed move.
“Vice President Pence, who was evacuated from the Capitol, should seriously consider working with the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to preserve democracy,” the organization said in its statement.
“This is not the vision of America that manufacturers believe in and work so hard to defend. Across America today, millions of manufacturing workers are helping our nation fight the deadly pandemic that has already taken hundreds of thousands of lives,” it added.
Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives for abuse of power at the beginning of last year, though he was acquitted by GOP-controlled Senate.
If business is supporting invoking the 25h, life is about to get very interesting.
