They need to get their legal terms correct for this to be of any value. It would have to be a petition for expulsion from congress not impeachment.

But that is not a bad idea to petition for expulsion, the fact is if the committee on ethics found evidence of "any" violation of the law they could recommend a vote to the senate for expulsion, which requires a two thirds majority. 2/3rds would be tough to achieve though in the senate and impossible in the house as it sits now.

So, in essence, this petition is, legally speaking, a total waste of time.
