A senior Democratic lawmaker has suggested fines of $25,000 a day for contempt on U.S. officials who stonewall congressional investigations of President Donald Trump and his administration. You can suggest all you want, but until the laws are changed, you're not imposing any penalty.
The Dims have to take their contempt case to court for any punishment to be imposed, which currently maxes out at up to 1 year in jail and a fine of $1,000.
