Lacy Clay Files Articles of Impeachment Against Donald Trump [View all]

U.S. Representative William Lacy Clay (D-St. Louis) has filed Articles of Impeachment against President Donald Trump — hoping to kickstart a process to see him removed from office or at least force the House Speaker to hold hearings to air his actions.

“Impeachment is the only constitutionally available remedy that would directly address President Trump’s blatant and repeated attempts to obstruct justice, his repeated lies to Congress, and most importantly his lies to the American people,” Clay said in a statement.

Clay joined with U.S. Representative Rashida Talib (D-Michigan) and U.S. Representative Al Green (D-Texas) in co-sponsoring House Resolution 257, "inquiring whether the House of Representatives should impeach Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America." It has been referred to the House Rules Committee.

He has also joined U.S. Rep. Brad Sherman (D-California) and Green on House Resolution 13, "Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors."
