Dem Files Impeachment Articles Against President Trump

Trump was impeached twice during his first term but was acquitted both times by the Senate. Any new impeachment effort would face a similar hurdle, requiring Senate conviction to remove a president from office.

Larson, who has served in Congress since 1999, is currently facing primary challenges, including from former Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin. Bronin supported the impeachment effort and called for Trump’s removal from office.

“The president of the United States is unstable … and a danger to our country,” Bronin said. “I’m glad that Congressman Larson has joined me in calling for his removal,” he said.

Hartford Board of Education member Ruth Fortune also backed Larson’s move. “Trump must be removed from office,” Fortune said, calling the impeachment effort “overdue.”

The resolution now sits in committee with no clear path forward.
