Yes, it is possible to impeach a Supreme Court Justice. You need a majority of the House and 2/3 of the Senate.
THE MIDTERMS ARE IN 31 DAYS. ELECT AS MANY PROGRESSIVES AS YOU CAN.
I’m not saying we’ll get there this year, but WE CANNOT STOP FIGHTING UNTIL WE WIN. UNTIL SURVIVORS ARE BELIEVED AND ABUSERS FACE CONSEQUENCES.
There are two parts to the process:
The House is entrusted with the responsibility of voting on impeachment. Its members decide by a majority vote.
Then the Senate holds a trial for the underlying misconduct. A conviction requires two-thirds of the Senate, or 67 votes. If there is a conviction, the Senate removes the individual from office.
“It’s as likely as the Democrats winning the House,” said Jed Shugerman, a professor at Fordham University School of Law.
How likely is Kavanaugh’s impeachment?
“If they take back the House, I would be surprised if they don’t put forth impeachment proceedings in the next Congress,” Shugerman told The Washington Post.
