Andrew Johnson was impeached in 1868 for violating the Tenure of Office Act, which restricted the president’s power to appoint and dismiss government officials without Senate approval. He was not removed from office, as the Senate fell one vote short of the required two-thirds majority to convict him. Clinton was later impeached in 1998, but like Johnson, he was not removed from office. Nixon resigned before he could be impeached, and Buchanan and Hayes were not impeached.
