Ogles Files Impeachment Resolution Against 1 Judge Over Somali TPS Stay

2 articles · Updated · Fox News · Aug 3

Summary

  • Rep. Andy Ogles filed an impeachment resolution against U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs after she temporarily blocked the Trump administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Somalis.
  • Friday’s stay kept Somali TPS in place despite a June Supreme Court ruling that sharply limited lower courts’ power to halt TPS decisions; plaintiffs had amended their complaint to press racial-discrimination claims.
  • DHS General Counsel James Percival called the ruling "defiance, obstruction, and delay," while Ogles said Burroughs was trying to evade the high court and should be removed from the bench.
  • The move revives a broader campaign by Trump allies against what they call activist judges, though a push last year to impeach Judge James Boasberg stalled after senior House Republicans questioned the tactic.
