Yesterday (Tuesday) House Democrats laid out impeachment charges against President Donald Trump.
Trump is accused of abusing his power by pressuring Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and also obstructing Congress by refusing to cooperate in the House investigation.
Tonight (Wednesday), the House Judiciary Committee will begin formal discussions on the articles of impeachment.
The meeting will be held on camera.
There is no word on how long the debate will last.
After that, the committee will take a final vote.
If approved, the full House would also need to vote on the impeachment articles before it would move over to the senate for trial.
The White House said the charges are “baseless” and that the president will “address these false charges in the Senate.”
