    The Tenure of Office Act was passed over Johnson's veto. When Johnson tried to remove Edwin Stanton, the Secretary of War and a Radical Republican, in August of 1867, the House initiated impeachment proceedings against Johnson in January of 1868. He was the first President to be impeached in American history. Oct 8, 2015
