Answer:
On December 19, 1998, the House of Representatives impeached President Bill Clinton on charges of perjury to a grand jury and obstruction of justice. The impeachment was the result of an investigation into Clinton's affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. The House voted to impeach Clinton on two of the four articles of impeachment that had been drawn up by the Judiciary Committee. However, Clinton was later acquitted by the Senate on both articles of impeachment, and he remained in office until the end of his second term in January 2001.
