Democrat Seeks to Punish Chief Justice Roberts With Impeachment

ADVERTISEMENT

Cohen’s resolution includes six articles of impeachment against Roberts, primarily focused on accusations that the Supreme Court, under his leadership, has acted in a partisan and inconsistent manner, per Newsweek:

  • Article I: “Failure of Stewardship: Politization of the Court” — accuses Roberts of allowing the court to become “a political instrument” through its handling of election and redistricting cases. 
  • Article II: “Violation of Oaths: Entrenchment of Minority Rule” — argues Roberts enabled partisan gerrymandering and weakened voting rights protections through decisions including Rucho v. Common Cause and Louisiana v. Callais. 
  • Article III: “Violation of Oath: Empowering the Rich Over the Poor” — criticizes Roberts’ role in campaign finance rulings, including Citizens United v.
