The charges stemmed from his extramarital affair with former White House Intern Monica Lewinsky and his testimony about the affair during a sexual harassment lawsuit filed against him by Paula Jones. Clinton was subsequently acquitted of these charges by the Senate on February 12, 1999.[1] Two other impeachment articles – a second perjury charge and a charge of abuse of power – failed in the House.<br />44 Bill Clinton 3x4.jpg This article is part of a series<br />about<br />Bill Clinton<br />Electoral history Political positions<br />Governor of Arkansas<br />Governorship 1992 Democratic primary<br />President of the United States<br />First term<br />Campaign for the Presidency 1992<br />1st inauguration Presidency NAFTA<br />Health Security Act 1994 midterm Economic policy Travelgate Whitewater AmeriCorps Dayton Agreement<br />Policies [show]<br />Second term<br />Campaign 1996 2nd inauguration<br />Operation Infinite Reach Bombing of Yugoslavia Balanced Budget<br />Monica Lewinsky scandal Impeachment<br />Post-Presidency<br />Presidential Library Public image<br />My Life Activities<br />Clinton Foundation Clinton Bush Haiti Fund<br />Signature of Bill Clinton.svg<br />President of the United States<br />v t e<br />The Independent Counsel, Ken Starr, turned over documentation to the House Judiciary Committee. The Chief Prosecutor, David Schippers, and his team reviewed the material and determined there was sufficient evidence to impeach the president. As a result, four charges were considered by the full House of Representatives; two passed, making Clinton the second president to be impeached, after Andrew Johnson in 1868, and only the third against whom articles of impeachment had been brought before the full House for consideration (Richard Nixon resigned from the presidency in 1974, while an impeachment process against him was underway).<br />The trial in the United States Senate began right after the seating of the 106th Congress, in which the Republican Party began with 55 senators. A two-thirds vote (67 senators) was required to remove Clinton from office. Fifty senators voted to remove Clinton on the obstruction of justice charge and 45 voted to remove him on the perjury charge; no member of his own Democratic Party voted guilty on either charge. Clinton, like Johnson a century earlier, was acquitted on all charges.LastMohican https://www.blogger.com/profile/07335078330778450603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-13065339260783830432016-11-26T11:43:37.860-05:002016-11-26T11:43:37.860-05:00Do a google search.
