High Crimes and Misdemeanors would be an easy play.

Treason wouldn't be unreasonable either:

    In Article III, Section 3 of the United States Constitution, treason is specifically limited to levying war against the US, or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

A high school debate team could make the point that ignoring a foreign power paying to have our troops shot simply because you have business interests with them would be "Adhering to their enemies".

I'm with am_Unition. If I were Congress I'd make a run at it for damn sure. Now is a time where Democrats could wrap themselves in the flag all day long.
