H.Res.1309

Impeaching John Glover Roberts, Jr., Chief Justice of the United States for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Introduced·5/21/26

Impeachment resolution against Chief Justice John Roberts for high crimes and misdemeanors.

This bill presents articles of impeachment against Chief Justice John Roberts, alleging he has violated his oath of office through actions that politicize the Supreme Court, empower the wealthy, and undermine democratic principles. The resolution claims Roberts failed to recuse himself from cases involving firms that paid his spouse, failed to uphold equal protection under the law, and allowed the Court to become a political instrument. The bill asserts these actions warrant his impeachment and removal from office.
