An impeached official is tried by the Senate. After the House of Representatives votes to impeach, the Senate conducts a trial to determine whether to remove the official from office. The Chief Justice of the United States presides over the trial if the impeached official is the President. A two-thirds majority in the Senate is required for conviction and removal from office.

Federal officials can be impeached in the House of Representatives. If a simple majority of the House votes for impeachment, the official proceeds to trial in the Senate.
