Impeachment of Andrew Johnson - Benjamin Curtis called Attention

Time: Apr, 1868

Place: Washington D.C., U.S.

Details: Benjamin Curtis called attention to the fact that after the House passed the Tenure of Office Act, the Senate had amended it, meaning that it had to return it to a Senate–House conference committee to resolve the differences. He followed up by quoting the minutes of those meetings, which revealed that while the House members made no notes about the fact, their sole purpose was to keep Stanton in office, and the Senate had disagreed.
