Introduced·7/9/26

Impeaching Sparkle L. Sooknanan, a District of Columbia judge, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

This bill seeks to impeach Sparkle L. Sooknanan, a judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, for high crimes and misdemeanors. The bill cites several reasons for impeachment, including abuse of judicial authority, disregard for the separation of powers, and usurpation of executive authority. It argues that Judge Sooknanan's actions, such as blocking the SAVE program, represent an improper encroachment on powers reserved for the Executive Branch and undermine public confidence in the judiciary.
