1M‑Signature Impeach Petition

An online campaign calling on Congress to impeach President Donald Trump has passed 1.1 million signatures, according to the petition’s organizers. (freespeechforpeople.org) The petition is part of the “Impeach Trump Again” campaign run by Free Speech For People, a legal advocacy group, and Women’s March. The campaign site listed a goal of 2 million supporters and showed 1,103,783 signatures when it was crawled this week. (impeachtrumpagain.org) Free Speech For People and Women’s March said on September 24, 2025, that the petition had topped one million names. Two months earlier, on July 23, 2025, the groups said they delivered nearly one million signatures to House Judiciary Committee leaders after a Capitol press conference with Rep. Al Green of Texas. (freespeechforpeople.org 1) (freespeechforpeople.org 2) The petition itself does not start impeachment proceedings. Under the Constitution, the House has the sole power of impeachment, and any case would have to move through the House Judiciary Committee and then the full House. (congress.gov) That makes the petition a pressure campaign, not a legal trigger. The organizers say Congress should act on what they describe as abuses of power since Trump’s second inauguration, and the campaign site says constitutional lawyers working with the group have compiled 25 alleged grounds for impeachment. (impeachtrumpagain.org) (freespeechforpeople.org) There is now also a formal impeachment resolution on file in the House. H.Res. 1155 was introduced on April 6, 2026, by Rep. John B. Larson of Connecticut and referred to the House Judiciary Committee the same day. (congress.gov) That resolution has not advanced beyond referral, and House Republicans still control the chamber. Congressional Research Service data from August 2025 put the House at 219 Republicans, 212 Democrats, and 4 vacancies, while the Clerk’s office continues to list Republicans as the majority in the 119th Congress. (congress.gov) (clerk.house.gov) Trump was impeached twice in his first term, in December 2019 and January 2021, and the Senate acquitted him both times. The current petition borrows that history in its name and argues that a second Trump presidency has created a new basis for House action. (history.house.gov) (impeachtrumpagain.org) For now, the million-signature milestone shows the scale of online opposition, but the next move still belongs to House members, not petition signers.
