Subject: Impeaching President Donald J. Trump -- Article II
Description: This vote (Article II) impeaches President Donald J. Trump for "obstruction of Congress." The article alleges President Trump directed defiance of certain subpoenas issued by Democrats in the House of Representatives. ACU recognizes the Constitution only calls for impeachment in cases of treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors and that the Constitution specifically creates checks and balances, and when the executive and legislative branches have a conflict, those conflicts shall be resolved by the judiciary; conflicts are inevitable, and must not be the basis for removing a duly elected President. Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Schiff (D-CA), and Rep. Nadler (D-NY) have lawlessly advanced an illegal coup against a seated President. (This vote was double- weighted due to its egregious attempt to reject the will of the people and reverse the results of the 2016 presidential election.)
Result: Agreed to, 227-195
Names ordered: By yea/nay Order alphabetically Order by party Order by state
