Impeachment is the process where a government official, at the state or federal level in the United States, is removed from office. It represents a critical part of the checks and balances envisioned by the Constitution and also by local and state laws. While impeachment of presidents has been rare, judges, congressional members, governors, and others have been impeached while holding office.
