A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution calls for the impeachment of Allison Dale Burroughs, a judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The resolution alleges that she committed high crimes and misdemeanors by issuing a stay on a presidential determination to end temporary protected status for Somalia. It claims she defied federal law and the authority of the Supreme Court. Furthermore, the text asserts she usurped presidential authority and ignored congressional intent regarding judicial review. The resolution concludes that she is unfit to hold her office and should be removed.
