Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This resolution would impeach James E. Boasberg, Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, and send one article of impeachment to the U.S. Senate. The article charges abuse of power. It says he authorized nondisclosure orders tied to an FBI investigation called ARCTIC FROST that covered several U.S. Senators and one Representative, including an order barring AT&T from telling Senator Cruz about a subpoena for at least one year. The resolution states that he should be removed from office.
