Abstract
Is there a method short of the draconian process of impeachment, a step short of the ultimate act of impeachment, by which Congress may register disapproval of acts of a president that do not meet the standards of high crimes and misdemeanors‘ One possibility, a method that has been used in the past on several occasions, is to a president. During the Clinton impeachment effort, Republicans insisted that censure was not a constitutionally acceptable means of addressing presidential wrongdoing. This paper examines censure as a response to presidential wrongdoing, finding it an extra-constitutional and occasionally used means to register disapproval of presidential actions that fall short of the standard of impeachment.
