Impeaching Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali, a judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, for high crimes and misdemeanors.
This resolution impeaches Judge Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, alleging he violated constitutional principles by blocking a 2024 executive order (EO 14169) that paused foreign aid funding. The resolution claims Judge Ali issued a restraining order requiring immediate fund disbursement without considering USAID's history of funding terrorism-linked activities, citing a 2021 GAO report and a 2024 incident involving al-Qaida-affiliated fighters. It asserts his actions disregarded presidential authority under Article II and compromised national interests. The resolution concludes he is unfit to serve as a federal judge due to "lacking intellectual honesty and basic integrity."
