Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) introduced articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden.
Boebert introduced the motion on Tuesday evening, teeing the motion up for a full vote on Wednesday, according to a whip notice. Because the motion was filed as a privileged resolution, House rules dictate the legislation can be brought up for a vote even without the approval of leadership.
The articles introduced by Boebert accuse Biden of facilitating a “complete and total invasion at the southern border” by ending a slew of Trump-era immigration policies after taking office, including the Title 42 policy lifted last month. That COVID-19-era rule allowed Border Patrol agents to expel immigrants immediately upon encountering them.
Boebert is seeking to impeach Biden on two charges, including one count of abuse of power and one count of dereliction of duty.
