Bill overview
This House Resolution seeks to remove James E. Boasberg, the Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, from his position. The resolution alleges that Judge Boasberg violated his oath of office by interfering with the President’s foreign policy decisions and national security efforts, specifically citing his actions regarding the designation of Venezuelan citizens associated with the Tren de Aragua organization. It argues that these actions constituted ‘misbehavior’ as defined by the Constitution’s ‘good behavior’ clause, justifying his removal from the bench.
