The House of Representatives has the sole power to:

• Initiate all revenue (money) bills, meaning all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House.
• Impeach federal officials, including the president, which means it can bring charges against officials that can lead to removal by the Senate.
• Elect the president if no candidate receives a majority of votes in the Electoral College.

These exclusive powers stem from the U.S. Constitution and define some key functions of the House in the legislative and oversight processes of the federal government.
