Executive summary

The U.S. Senate did not vote to convict or remove President Donald J. Trump in February 2026; no Senate impeachment conviction vote occurred during that month because the House efforts that could have produced articles either were proposals or were tabled and did not result in a completed impeachment that sent articles to the Senate for trial and vote (Congress documents and contemporary reporting) [1] [2] [3].

1. What was on the floor in Washington: multiple House resolutions, not a Senate trial

Throughout late 2025 and into January 2026, Democratic members introduced and circulated impeachment resolutions — for example H.Res.939 and H.Res.353 — laying out articles accusing President Trump of abuses of power and other charges; those documents are available in the official Congressional record as House resolutions, but introduction of such resolutions does not mean the Senate voted on impeachment in February 2026 (Congress.gov text of H.Res.939 and H.Res.353) [1] [2].

2. No Senate conviction vote in February 2026; historical acquittals remain the recorded Senate actions

The Senate’s prior actions remain the decisive historical record: in the two earlier impeachments the Senate acquitted Mr. Trump — a fact reiterated in multiple news accounts — and there is no contemporaneous reporting in February 2026 that the Senate held a conviction vote against President Trump that month (reporting noting past Senate acquittals and context around impeachment efforts) [4] [5].

3. Political reality: Democrats debated timing while Republicans controlled chambers, limiting practical pathway

Commentary and news coverage explained why Democrats had limited options in early 2026: some public Democratic voices argued for restraint until after the 2026 elections, and reporting emphasized that a House majority vote followed by the constitutionally required two‑thirds Senate conviction made successful removal unlikely given the partisan balance — context repeated across analysis and local reporting that said impeachment efforts were unlikely to succeed in that congressional configuration (news and opinion coverage about strategy and political barriers) [6] [3] [7].

4. Plain answer with sourcing and the limits of public record

There was no Senate vote to convict or remove President Trump in February 2026; the public record shows proposed and filed House resolutions and public debate about impeachment, but not a completed impeachment sent to the Senate that produced a Senate conviction vote during that month (House resolutions on Congress.gov; contemporary summaries and reporting noting the absence of an active Senate conviction vote) [1] [2] [3]. This account is limited to the cited congressional texts and reporting: if there are classified procedures, private actions, or developments not reported in these sources, those would not be reflected here [1] [2].
