## Summary

**Impeachment** of U.S. District Judge Eleanor Louise Ross for alleged misconduct that threatens courtroom integrity. The resolution would accuse her of an undisclosed intimate relationship that created a conflict of interest, attending a partisan event linked to a case, and making false statements in an investigation. - Judge Ross: Named in three Articles of Impeachment that recommend removal for conflicts of interest, prohibited political activity around a proceeding, and obstructing an investigation. - Court staff: The articles allege intimate contact in chambers during business hours and describe a workplace that staff found uncomfortable. - Litigants and public confidence: The resolution says the undisclosed relationship and partisan attendance raise questions about fairness in cases she handled and erode trust in the judiciary.
