What role does the Senate play in the impeachment process?

  1. They accuse federal officials of misconduct

  2. They vote to impeach the official

  3. They determine if the accused person is guilty

  4. They enforce the impeachment ruling

The correct answer is: They determine if the accused person is guilty

The Senate plays a crucial role in the impeachment process as they act as the jury and determine if the accused official is guilty or not guilty. Option A is incorrect because it is the House of Representatives who accuses federal officials of misconduct. Option B is incorrect because while the House of Representatives votes to impeach the official, it is ultimately up to the Senate to determine if the official will be removed from office. Option D is incorrect because it is the responsibility of the executive branch to enforce the ruling of impeachment.
