House Resolution 26 is a measure introduced in January 2021 that proposes the impeachment of then-President Donald J. Trump for "high crimes and misdemeanors." The resolution outlines two specific articles of impeachment: the first focuses on the President’s efforts to pressure Georgia state officials to alter election results, and the second alleges a broader pattern of conduct intended to undermine democratic institutions and the 2021 transition of power.
If passed by the House and leading to a conviction in the Senate, the practical impact of this resolution would be the formal removal of the President from office and a potential permanent disqualification from holding any future federal office. For citizens, this bill represents the use of a constitutional mechanism designed to provide oversight of the executive branch and address allegations of presidential misconduct. The resolution was referred to a House subcommittee in March 2021, where it remains without further legislative action.
