A. vote to impeach a government official.
B. impeach a government official who has been found guilty by the Senate.
C. conduct a trial of impeachment if approved by the Senate.
D. impeach members of the Senate, but not the House.

Answer 1

The correct answer is option A. "vote to impeach a government official".

Step-by-step explanation:

Impeachment in the United States is a process at which charges against a government official could be brought by the lower house of a legislature. At the federal level, the House of Representatives is the one that holds this power. A member of the House of Representatives can request impeachment by his or her own initiative by presenting charges under oath or by asking for referral to the appropriate committee.
