Impeached

Bill Clinton was Impeached by the House of Representatives on charges of prejury and obstructon of justice on December 19, 1998. This all began with an inquiry by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr and civil lawsuit by Paula Jones. She was apparently sexually harassed by Clinton in a hotel room. After providing evidence, Clinton admitted he was involved. This led to the House of Representative's charges against him. In order for him ot be removed form office, 67 senators had to vote for it, but only 45 did. He was impeached, but not removed from office
