Latest action on H.Res. 415: Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects President Trump, the courts, and people who depend on court orders to protect their rights. It also matters to Congress because only Congress can move an impeachment case forward. The most direct real-world issue is whether court orders can stop the executive branch when it tries to remove someone from the country.
Why this matters: This matters because court orders only work if the government follows them. The resolution argues that a president who ignores courts can put due process and the rule of law at risk. It also raises a larger question: when a president attacks judges or resists their rulings, should Congress treat that as an impeachable offense? The answer would depend on what the House and Senate decide to do.

- It says the President broke his oath of office. It also says he failed his duty to make sure the laws are faithfully carried out.
- The main case involves Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. The resolution says he was sent to El Salvador even though a court had already blocked sending him there.
