This resolution proposes to impeach U.S. District Judge Paul Adam Engelmayer of the Southern District of New York based on allegations of abusing his judicial power. According to the resolution, Judge Engelmayer violated his oath of office by issuing court orders that restrained President Trump and Treasury Secretary Bessent from granting access to Treasury Department records and financial data systems containing sensitive information. The sponsors claim these judicial actions prioritized political considerations over impartiality and interfered with executive branch authority. The resolution was introduced on February 21, 2025, and referred to the House Judiciary Committee. If the full House votes to impeach, the case would proceed to the Senate for a trial to determine whether Judge Engelmayer should be removed from office.
