Fact check: Who voted to impeach Donald Trump in 2025

1. Summary of the results

Based on the analyses provided, 79 House members voted in favor of impeaching Donald Trump in what appears to be a 2025 impeachment effort ^{[1] [2]}. The impeachment resolution was led by Rep. Al Green of Texas and focused on charges of abuse of power for bypassing Congress's constitutional authority to authorize military action, specifically related to Iran strikes ^{[1] [3]}.

The final vote tally was 344-79, with the majority voting to table (effectively kill) the impeachment articles ^{[2] [1]}. This means:

• 79 representatives voted against tabling the articles (effectively voting to proceed with impeachment)
• 344 representatives voted to table the articles (effectively voting against impeachment)

The vote breakdown shows that 128 Democrats joined 216 Republicans in voting to table the impeachment effort, while the 79 votes in favor came primarily from progressive Democrats ^{[2] [4]}.

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original question lacks several crucial pieces of context revealed in the analyses:

• The impeachment effort was ultimately unsuccessful - it was tabled/killed rather than proceeding ^{[1] [5]}
• The Democratic Party was significantly split on this issue, with 128 Democrats actually voting against their colleague's impeachment effort ^{[4] [3]}
• The impeachment was specifically related to Iran strikes and military action authorization, not other potential grounds ^[3]
• Notable progressive figures like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez supported the impeachment effort while mainstream Democrats opposed it ^[5]
• Specific state delegations can be identified - for example, 4 Oregon and Southwest Washington Democrats sided with Republicans to block the impeachment vote ^[3]

The analyses suggest that progressive Democrats would benefit from portraying this as broader Democratic support for impeachment, while mainstream Democrats and Republicans would benefit from emphasizing the bipartisan rejection of the impeachment effort.

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question "Who voted to impeach Donald Trump in 2025" contains potential bias through framing by omission:

• It implies the impeachment was successful or significant when in reality it was overwhelmingly rejected by both parties ^{[2] [1]}
• It doesn't acknowledge that the majority of Democrats opposed the effort, creating a misleading impression about Democratic unity on impeachment ^[4]
• The phrasing suggests this was a major legislative action rather than what the analyses reveal was a largely symbolic gesture by a progressive minority ^{[5] [3]}

The question's framing could mislead readers into believing there was substantial support for Trump's impeachment in 2025, when the evidence shows it was a failed effort supported by only 79 out of 423 voting House members ^[2].
