Event Details
Resolved, That Donald John Trump, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors and that the following article of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate: Article 1: Incitement of Insurrection.
With oral arguments set to commence in Trump's second impeachment trial, please join the ACS Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Austin, Bay Area, Georgia, Madison, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Nashville, New York, and Orange County Lawyer Chapters and our co-sponsors for a discussion of the legal and constitutional issues that make this impeachment trial particularly unique and, perhaps, even more significant than previous presidential impeachment trials. Panelists will discuss the constitutionality of impeaching a former official; what lessons should be drawn from past impeachments; and whether the impeachment power itself is really a meaningful check on bad actors.
Featuring:
Heidi Kitrosser, Robins Kaplan Professor of Law and ACS Faculty Advisor, University of Minnesota Law School
Franita Tolson, Vice Dean for Faculty and Academic Affairs, and Professor of Law, USC Gould School of Law; Member, ACS Board of Directors and Board of Academic Advisors
Adam Winkler, Connell Professor of Law and ACS Faculty Advisor, UCLA School of Law; Member, ACS Board of Academic Advisors and Board of Advisors
Moderated by:
