- Impeachment_in_the_United_States abstract "Impeachment in the United States is an expressed power of the legislature that allows for formal charges against a civil officer of government for crimes committed in office. The actual trial on those charges, and subsequent removal of an official on conviction on those charges, is separate from the act of impeachment itself. Impeachment proceedings have been initiated against the President of the United States on several occasions. Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton are the only two presidents to have been successfully impeached by the House of Representatives, though both were later acquitted by the Senate. The impeachment process of Richard Nixon was technically unsuccessful, as Nixon resigned from office prior to the full-House vote for impeachment. To date, no U.S. President has been removed from office via impeachment and conviction.Impeachment is analogous to indictment in regular court proceedings, while trial by the other house is analogous to the trial before judge and jury in regular courts. Typically, the lower house of the legislature will impeach the official and the upper house will conduct the trial.At the federal level, Article II of the United States Constitution (Section 4) states that \"The President, Vice President, and all civil Officers of the United States shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors.\" The House of Representatives has the sole power of impeaching, while the United States Senate has the sole power to try all impeachments. The removal of impeached officials is automatic upon conviction in the Senate. In Nixon v. United States (1993), the Supreme Court determined that the federal judiciary cannot review such proceedings.Impeachment can also occur at the state level: state legislatures can impeach state officials, including governors, according to their respective state constitutions.At the Philadelphia Convention, Benjamin Franklin noted that, historically, the removal of \"obnoxious\" chief executives had been accomplished by assassination. Franklin suggested that a proceduralized mechanism for removal—impeachment—would be preferable.".
