House would move to remove Defense Secretary Peter B. Hegseth from office.
This bill proposes that the House of Representatives impeach Peter B. Hegseth, the current Secretary of Defense. If passed, it would send articles of impeachment to the Senate, which could lead to his removal from office and prevent him from holding future government positions. The bill outlines two main allegations against Secretary Hegseth: ordering lethal strikes that killed shipwrecked survivors and recklessly mishandling classified information.
Today, Peter B. Hegseth serves as the Secretary of Defense. If this bill becomes law, he would be impeached by the House of Representatives, meaning the House would formally accuse him of wrongdoing. These accusations would then go to the Senate for a trial, which could result in his removal from office and prevent him from holding any future government positions.
