According to the U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 2, Clause 5):
"The House of Representatives shall choose their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment."
Remember that an impeachment is only a formal accusation of wrongdoing; when a government official is impeached, his case is then tried in the Senate.
Congress can check the president by refusing to appropriate money for an executive department.It can also refuse to authorize the creation of new administrative agencies and can abolish existing ones. The senate can reject a treaty made by the president. (A two-thirds vote of the senate is required to ratify a treaty.) It can reject presidential appointments by a majority vote. The House of Representatives has the power to impeach the president, that is, to charge that official with wrongdoing.
The US House of Representatives has exclusive constitutional authority to initiate impeachment proceedings.
Both the President and US Supreme Court justices may be impeached by the House and removed from office if convicted in a Senate trial, but only for "high crimes and misdemeanors," or other offenses described in Articles I, II and III of the Constitution.
The House of Representatives would impeach (decide if the President should be tried) The actual trial would be by the Senate.
