President Bill Clinton was impeached in 1998, not 1996, primarily due to charges of perjury and obstruction of justice related to his extramarital affair with Monica Lewinsky. The impeachment stemmed from his attempts to cover up the relationship during a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Paula Jones, a former Arkansas state employee. The House of Representatives approved the articles of impeachment, but Clinton was acquitted by the Senate and completed his term in office.
