Impeaching John Glover Roberts, Jr., Chief Justice of the United States for high crimes and misdemeanors.
This resolution formally impeaches Chief Justice John Roberts of the Supreme Court, accusing him of high crimes and misdemeanors for allegedly violating his constitutional oath of office. The document outlines six specific articles of impeachment that claim he politicized the Court, undermined voting rights, favored wealthy interests, granted excessive immunity to the executive branch, issued arbitrary rulings, and failed to recuse himself due to his spouse's lucrative legal recruitment work. If the House were to adopt this measure, it would initiate a trial in the Senate where a two-thirds vote would be required to convict and remove the Chief Justice from office.
