Impeaching Charles R. Breyer, Senior Judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, for high crimes and misdemeanors.
This resolution (HRES 556) proposes impeaching Senior Judge Charles R. Breyer of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging he abused his judicial authority. It claims he interfered with President Trump’s use of the National Guard in Los Angeles and required the President to disregard constitutional procedures to return the National Guard to California’s governor. The resolution states these actions violated his oath of impartiality, overstepped judicial boundaries, and harmed the separation of powers. If adopted, it would formally accuse Judge Breyer of "high crimes and misdemeanors" and send the impeachment article to the Senate for trial. The resolution focuses solely on the House’s stated allegations, not on whether the claims are proven.
