Understanding Impeachment Teach-Out

Welcome to the Understanding Impeachment Teach-Out. Whether you’re a republican or a democrat, independent, or not affiliated, you likely have questions about impeachment. In this Teach-Out you will learn from leading experts across the disciplines of law, political science, and public policy as well as former federal prosecutors and political candidates.

We recognize that impeachment of any elected official often splits along party lines or is wrapped up in deeply rooted personal and political ideals. We wanted to create this Teach-Out as a learning experience and an opportunity where everyone, despite political opinion, can join and have a productive, respectful conversation. Rather than focusing on current events that are changing daily, this Teach-Out aims to provide context by exploring the legal and political processes of impeachment, the history of impeachment in the United States, and the implications impeachment may have on the U.S. moving forward. 

We expect Teach-Out participants to offer each other respect. Teach-Outs are best for everyone when we all participate in discussion, learn new things about a topic, and challenge ideas, rather than each other.
