Have articles of impeachment been introduced against Donald J. Trump?

1. A flurry of new filings: who filed what and when

Individual House Democrats have filed discrete articles and whole resolutions to impeach President Trump: Representative Shri Thanedar publicly introduced seven articles accusing Trump of abuses including obstruction, usurpation of power and bribery ^{[1] [6]}, Representative Al Green filed H.Res.939 alleging abuse of power and incitement and other counts ^[4], and Congress.gov records show multiple distinct impeachment resolutions have been entered into the record in the 119th Congress—H.Res.353 and H.Res.537 among them, each presenting multipart articles asserting violations ranging from appropriation usurpation to unlawful uses of force ^{[2] [3]}.

2. Not all filings are equal: formal texts, long shots, and procedural posture

The introductions on the congressional record—texts posted on Congress.gov—constitute formal impeachment resolutions regardless of their prospects; H.Res.353 and H.Res.537 are complete resolutions that “resolve” the president is impeached and list enumerated articles ^{[2] [3]}. Yet multiple contemporaneous news and political reports describe many of these filings as long‑shot or symbolic efforts, driven by individual members rather than House leadership strategy ^{[6] [7]}. That procedural reality matters: a filed resolution can exist on the record even if House leaders signal it lacks the votes to pass or to be referred to an impeachment inquiry.

3. Votes, advancement and the shape of support

Some impeachment efforts have advanced to floor action or procedural votes: on December 11, 2025, 140 House members voted to advance articles introduced by Rep. Al Green, a tally the advocacy group Free Speech For People and contemporary reporting highlight as a marker of momentum even though the resolution’s ultimate success was uncertain ^{[5] [7]}. Media coverage also notes that Democratic leadership counseled restraint and some Democrats voted to table or vote “present,” underscoring internal disagreement over strategy, timing, and the sacred constitutional nature of impeachment ^[7].

4. Context from prior impeachments and a long history of resolutions

These 2025–2026 filings sit atop a history of multiple impeachment efforts against Trump: he was impeached by the House twice during his earlier presidency—H.Res.755 in 2019 (first impeachment articles archived in government publications) and again in 2021 following Jan. 6 (H.Res.24 and related materials are part of the public congressional record)—and scholarly and public repositories track numerous resolutions introduced over years ^{[8] [9] [10] [11] [12]}. Wikipedia and archival govinfo collections document an extended pattern of both formal and symbolic impeachment filings across Trump’s time in office ^{[12] [10]}.

5. What reporting does and does not establish

The public sources reviewed establish clearly that multiple articles and resolutions have been introduced and that at least some—most prominently Rep. Al Green’s—have drawn substantial floor activity and votes ^{[4] [5] [7]}. Sources also show individual members like Rep. Shri Thanedar have put forward multi‑article packages ^{[1] [6]}. What the assembled reporting does not uniformly establish—without digging into each text and subsequent House actions—is whether any of the 119th‑Congress resolutions have completed every procedural step to become an official impeachment by vote of the full House (the Congress.gov texts themselves are formal filings, but passage or referral outcomes require separate confirmation beyond the cited snippets) ^{[2] [3]}. Readers should treat “introduced” as legally and factually accurate based on the congressional filings and press releases cited, while recognizing that introduction is distinct from passage, referral to committee, or conviction in the Senate.
