Has the House of Representatives passed any resolution calling for the president’s resignation?
Executive summary
Available reporting in the provided sources documents House floor activity tied to the 2025 government shutdown and votes on continuing resolutions, but none of these items says the House passed a resolution explicitly calling for the president’s resignation (available sources do not mention a House resolution demanding the president resign). The materials show House passage of funding bills and procedural resolutions tied to ending the shutdown, including a November 12 House vote to approve a shutdown-ending continuing resolution [1] [2].
1. What the sources actually show about House votes
The materials supplied focus overwhelmingly on the House voting to end the 2025 government shutdown — for example, reporting that the House voted 222–209 on November 12 to approve the continuing resolution that would reopen the government and that President Trump signed it [1] [2]. Congressional press releases and news outlets in the set frame those House actions as funding and appropriations votes, not as actions aimed at forcing presidential resignation [3] [4].
2. No mention in these items of a resignation-resolution
In the search results provided, there is no article, roll-call abstract, or press release that reports the House passing any resolution calling for the president’s resignation; the records and reporting instead concern appropriations, continuing resolutions, and procedural matters related to the shutdown [1] [3]. If such a resolution existed and passed, these contemporaneous accounts of major House action around the shutdown would likely have noted it; they do not [2] [5].
3. What kinds of House measures are shown in the results
The items here document specific types of legislative actions the House took: passing continuing appropriations/stopgap funding bills, and procedural House resolutions such as a committee-notification rule (H.Res.3) and constitutional amendment proposals (H.J.Res.29) listed on Congress.gov excerpts included in the search set [6] [7]. None of the cited Congress.gov items in this set is a resolution demanding the president resign [6] [7].
4. Context on partisan dynamics and calls for resignation elsewhere
While the provided coverage does show partisan heat — for example, The Guardian reports progressive groups calling for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to resign over a deal, and critics rebuking others for “betrayal” — that is not the same as the House passing a resolution urging the president to step down [5]. The reporting therefore captures intra-party pressure and public calls for resignations in other contexts, but not a House-passed presidential-resignation resolution [5].
5. Where a reader might reasonably look next
To confirm definitively whether the House ever passed a resolution calling for the president’s resignation, consult official House roll-call records, Congress.gov bill and resolution texts, or major national news stories beyond these shutdown-focused pieces. The current set includes roll-call summaries for the continuing resolution votes [1] and press releases about appropriations work [3], but it does not include a House roll-call or legislative text asserting that a resignation-resolution passed (available sources do not mention such a roll-call).
6. Limitations and possible alternative interpretations
These search results are concentrated on the shutdown and a small number of congressional items; they may not be exhaustive of all House actions during the broader session. It is possible a separate, symbolic House resolution calling for resignation could exist outside this subset, but the documents provided do not report or cite it (available sources do not mention such a resolution). Given the prominence such an action would have had, contemporary major outlets and the House’s own press materials in this set focus on appropriations and would likely have mentioned a resignation resolution if it had passed [2] [3].
Bottom line: the provided reporting and official summaries show the House voting on funding measures to end the shutdown and other routine congressional items; none of the supplied sources reports that the House passed a resolution calling for the president to resign [1] [3] [2].
