(Fox News) Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., introduced articles of impeachment against President Biden on claims that he mishandled his “constitutional duty to secure our southern border.”
“I introduced the articles of impeachment in the last Congress and had fully intended to introduce them this Congress, but I was also giving some other committees and leadership the opportunity to lead on this,” Boebert told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview Tuesday.
While the congresswoman is giving others the opportunity to act, Boebert warned that if leadership does not “actually do something about the president’s failure to secure our southern border and keep the country safe” then she will introduce the impeachment legislation under a privileged motion.

Boebert explained what her impeachment process would look like if she decides to call her impeachment legislation.
“Under Rule IX in the House, we can bring up certain pieces of legislation under a privileged motion. So I would go to the House floor and call up my articles of impeachment and read it in its entirety. And at that point, leadership has a maximum of two days to respond and see if it’s going to be sent to committee or a vote on the articles themselves,” Boebert told Fox.

Boebert also cosponsored her Tennessee GOP colleague Rep. Andy Ogles’ articles of impeachment against the president and Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday.
