Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
This resolution asks the House of Representatives to "expunge" the January 13, 2021 impeachment of President Donald J. Trump and to record that article as if it had never passed. In practice, it is a statement and an instruction to the House about its own records and does not create a new law. It does not change actions taken by the Senate or by courts, nor does it by itself overturn historical events or legal proceedings.
This is a simple House resolution that would need only a majority vote in the House to pass; it is not sent to the President and does not become law. Its effect is limited to the House chamber and its official records.
This House resolution would "expunge" the January 13, 2021 impeachment of Donald J.
Trump, declaring the article void as if it had never passed.
The text argues the impeachment process lacked regular order, omitted election-context facts, and failed to meet constitutional standards for high crimes, insurrection, or 14th Amendment disqualification.
As a narrow, symbolic House resolution it could pass the House if leadership and a majority back it, but its partisan nature and lack of broader support make final success uncertain.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this resolution is clear in purpose and provides extensive justification language, but it is light on procedural implementation and administrative detail.
