Whistleblower Complaint on Ukraine and Impeachment Inquiry

This page strives to serve as a compilation of official documents related to the whistleblower complaint and impeachment inquiry begun in September 2019. 

For those with access to HeinOnline (which includes current UCSD affiliates), content from this page is now also available in that database's new "U.S. Presidential Impeachment Library" collection. More information is available in a HeinOnline blog post.

Note: many links are no longer live, since the Congress and White House have changed hands. Where necessary, I've changed links to point to archived copies in the Internet Archive. After clicking a (via Internet Archive) link, select the appropriate year on the calendar bar at the top of the Internet Archive site, then hover over a blue circle (which indicates the date captured) and click the snapshot link in the popup box.
