The purpose of this resolution is to impeach Deborah Boardman, a judge in the United States District Court for Maryland, on the grounds of "high crimes and misdemeanors." The resolution argues that Judge Boardman has violated her duty to uphold the law and maintain "good behavior" in her judicial role. Key provisions of the resolution detail specific actions by Judge Boardman that are claimed to constitute misconduct. It alleges that she issued an unusually lenient sentence to Nicholas John Roske, who was convicted of attempting to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
