The Illinois House of Representatives has the sole power to start impeachment proceedings in Illinois. Once the impeachment process is started, it ends with a trial in the Senate. If convicted, the person is removed from office.
In Illinois, the trial for impeachment occurs in the Illinois State Senate. After the House of Representatives votes to impeach an official, the Senate conducts the trial to determine whether to convict and remove the official from office. A two-thirds majority is required in the Senate for conviction. The Chief Justice of the Illinois Supreme Court presides over the trial if the impeachment involves the Governor.
