The first thing you should do is check your PTO's bylaws, if your group has them; they would almost certainly not allow this kind of thing to take place. You should also (calmly, reasonably) point out to your treasurer that such a move really won't do much to inspire confidence and support from your members. What a positive it is to have new parents willing to step up into leadership roles! And what a shame it would be to lose that goodwill -- especially since the negative effects are likely to last beyond this treasurer's term of office.
