Transparency & Accountability
The House would formally accuse President Trump of 13 offenses. The charges would then go to the Senate. The Senate decides whether to remove him.
Inspectors general are watchdogs inside federal agencies. They look for waste and abuse. The resolution says at least 17 were fired on January 24, 2025. A 1978 law requires 30 days notice to Congress first.
Congress decides how federal money is spent. The resolution says money it approved was frozen in January 2025. It also says $500 million from Venezuelan oil sales went to a bank in Qatar.

More about this bill
Nothing in law would change right away if the House passed this. It is a formal accusation, not a new law. It asks the House to charge President Trump with 13 offenses. The articles would then go to the Senate for a trial. Removal from office needs a two-thirds Senate vote. Two lawyers wrote the articles: consumer advocate Ralph Nader and legal scholar Bruce Fein. The resolution went to the House Judiciary Committee on April 6, 2026. The first articles deal with war and protest. One says he ordered military strikes without a vote in Congress. It cites the deaths of people suspected of drug trafficking at sea. Another says he sent National Guard troops to cities such as Chicago and Portland. It says the goal was to deter peaceful protest. Others say people were deported based on race, ethnicity, or opposition to him. One says an order would end birthright citizenship for some children born in the United States. Later articles deal with money, secrecy, and law enforcement. One says he refused to spend funds Congress had approved. It also cites $500 million from Venezuelan oil sales sent to a Qatari bank. Another says he fired at least 17 inspectors general without the 30-day notice the law requires. One cites pardons for more than 1,500 people charged over January 6, 2021. Another says he brought cases against his critics. It says he also had a case dropped for an ally. The last says he kept business interests that earn money while he is in office.
