HRES 1010 is a resolution proposing to remove the December 18, 2019, impeachment of President Donald Trump from the official record. It argues the impeachment lacked constitutional evidence of "high Crimes and Misdemeanors," claiming Articles I and II relied on vague accusations, hearsay, and political motives rather than proven misconduct. The resolution asserts the impeachment was improperly based on unsubstantiated claims about a phone call with Ukraine's president and an anonymous whistleblower complaint. As a symbolic procedural resolution, it does not alter legal outcomes but seeks to erase the impeachment from congressional history.
