U.S. Constitution, Article I — The Legislative Branch, Section 2, Clause 5
The House of Representatives shall chuse their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.
Notes
Allows the House of Representatives to choose its own Speaker and other officers, and establishes the House as the only body with the power of impeachment. No other branch or chamber can bring an impeachment, and the choice of House officers rests with the House alone.
