The Claim

Papers of impeachment have been filed against the 47th President of the United States.

Verified by Lenz ·

The Short Version

Individual House members — including Reps. Al Green and John Larson — announced filing impeachment resolutions against President Trump as the 47th President, citing specific resolution numbers and dates. However, the official U.S. House legislative record and GovTrack.us, a comprehensive real-time tracker, both show no such resolutions in the 119th Congress record as of April 2026. The claim is directionally grounded in member announcements but omits the critical fact that these filings do not appear in the official congressional record and carried no procedural weight.

Caveats

  • The official U.S. House of Representatives website (house.gov) explicitly states no articles of impeachment have been introduced against Trump in his current term as the 47th President, directly contradicting individual members' press releases.
  • There is a critical distinction between a member announcing a 'filing' via press release and a resolution formally entering the congressional record — the claim does not make this distinction.
  • Even if the resolutions were introduced, they had no realistic path to passage in the Republican-controlled House and represent symbolic political gestures rather than meaningful impeachment proceedings.
