Impeaching Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.
HRES 1220 is a procedural resolution introduced by House members to impeach President Biden for "high crimes and misdemeanors." It alleges that President Biden abused his power by conditioning U.S. weapons shipments to Israel on Israel not entering Rafah, violating his constitutional duty to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." The resolution formally transmits this impeachment article to the Senate for trial, as required by the Constitution, but does not enact any new policy or affect any group directly. This is a formal procedural step in the impeachment process, not a legislative bill with policy changes.
