The latest eLesson from the Bill of Rights Institute
Impeachment and the U.S. Constitution ([link removed])
Since the process of impeachment was first outlined in the draft of the Constitution in 1787, nineteen officials in the U.S. have been impeached and stood trial. The crimes these individuals have been charged with range from perjury to conspiracy to intoxication on the bench. Currently, members of the House of Representatives are investigating President Trump to determine if he should be impeached.
In this lesson ([link removed]) , students will examine the impeachment clause of the Constitution to understand the role that Congress plays in impeachment proceedings. They will also examine past cases to see the impeachment process in action. In doing so, students will gain a better understanding of the purpose of impeachment and its role in our constitutional system.
