An opinion piece written by Jon Meacham, Carolyn T. and Robert M. Rogers Chair and Distinguished Visiting Professor of Political Science, and Michael E. Shepherd, a Ph.D. candidate in political science was featured in the Washington Post this week.

The piece, “Republicans face political risks on impeachment. But history shows not all is lost,” discusses political courage, illustrating previous examples of high-profile votes that did not cost politicians’ their seats.
