Introduced and handed to a committee in the chamber it started in.

The committee holds it, and most bills are never heard from again. A hearing or a committee vote would be news; silence is the usual outcome, and it kills the bill without anyone voting against it.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. In Committee

A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution proposes to officially expunge the January 13, 2021, impeachment of President Donald John Trump. The text argues that the original impeachment process lacked proper legislative procedures, evidentiary hearings, and due process for the President. It details various concerns and grievances regarding the 2020 Presidential election, state election law changes, and voting machine integrity. The document criticizes the handling of the impeachment by Democratic leadership and notes that the Senate trial occurred after Trump had already left office. Ultimately, the resolution states that the impeachment should be treated as if it never passed the House of Representatives.
