Bill Summary

RESOLUTION Providing for consideration of the resolution (H. Res. 24) impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors..

AI Summary

This Resolution sets the rules for considering a separate resolution, H. Res. 24, which impeaches Donald John Trump, the President of the United States, for "high crimes and misdemeanors," meaning serious offenses against the law or the Constitution. Specifically, it allows the House of Representatives to debate and vote on H. Res. 24 without procedural delays, limiting debate to two hours equally divided between the majority and minority parties on the Judiciary Committee. The resolution also grants the Speaker broad authority to manage the proceedings, preventing other motions or questions from interrupting the impeachment process, and makes H. Res. 40, another impeachment-related resolution, the primary one for the remainder of the congressional session. Finally, it adjusts a date related to a previous House resolution, changing "January 28" to "February 11," likely to accommodate the impeachment proceedings.
