Congress, ie the House and the Senate, CANNOT easily be removed from office, unless of course they murder someone or are not re-elected. Impeachment is only valid on "The President, the Vice President, and all civil Officers of the United States." Congress does not fit in those categories.
However, Article I, Section 5 of the United States Constitution allows each house to punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, "with the concurrence of two-thirds, expel a member." In the House, this process is initiated by the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct (AKA the House Ethics Committee)
