Summary

A resolution to impeach a sitting judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia for high crimes and misdemeanors. If the House adopted it, articles of impeachment would be sent to the Senate for trial; the articles allege abuse of judicial authority in connection with rulings she issued, and those allegations are the resolution's own.
