House Democrats announced on a private call Monday that their chamber will vote to impeach President Donald Trump for the second time on Wednesday, one week after the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and a week before Democrat Joe Biden’s inauguration.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other Democratic leaders told members Monday that they would be calling the House back in session on Tuesday night, first to vote on a bill to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump from power, and then ― assuming that legislation doesn’t result in Trump leaving office ― the House will vote Wednesday on impeachment.
