The Democratic-led U.S. House of Representatives will vote on Wednesday (January 15) to send formal impeachment charges against President Donald Trump to the Senate, lawmakers said on Tuesday, bringing the start of Trump’s trial one step closer.
The House impeached Trump last month on charges of abusing power by pressuring Ukraine to announce an investigation into his Democratic rival Joe Biden and of obstructing Congress.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told a party meeting on Tuesday (January 14) that she would also name the Democrats’ team of "managers" who will lead the prosecution of Trump at the trial,
But Pelosi has delayed sending the charges to the Senate in an unsuccessful effort to get that chamber’s Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to agree to include new witness testimony that could be damaging to the Republican president.
McConnell, who has pledged to coordinate the trial with the White House, said the House case for impeachment is weak and it should not fall to the Senate to "reopen the investigation."
