•HRES 779 IH 
Whereas the absence of impeachment standards creates an 
appearance that impeachment is a partisan exercise, 
which undermines its legitimacy and deters its use; 
Whereas the impeachment power of the House of Representa-
tives is a cornerstone safeguard against Presidential tyr-
anny; 
Whereas the past neglect of the House of Representatives to 
use 
the 
impeachment 
power 
against 
Presidential 
usurpations and lawlessness has concentrated alarming 
power in the executive branch, crippled liberty, under-
mined transparency, and encouraged Presidents to fur-
ther aggrandizements; and 
Whereas it would be unfair and would carry an appearance 
of partisanship if newly articulated impeachment stand-
ards were applied to the incumbent President: Now, 
therefore, be it 
Resolved, 
SECTION 1. DEFINITION OF PRESIDENTIAL IMPEACHABLE 
OFFENSES. 
The House of Representatives declares that the fol-
lowing Presidential actions shall constitute impeachable 
‘‘high crimes and misdemeanors’’ within the meaning of 
Article II, section 4, which will cause the House to vote 
an article or articles of impeachment to send to the Senate 
for trial— 
(1) initiating war without express congressional 
authorization;

(2) killing American citizens in the United

ties;
