The Democratic-controlled House of Representatives approved a resolution Wednesday to transmit the articles of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate, formally paving the way for a historic trial over the president’s dealings with Ukraine.
The measure, which passed 228-193 largely along party lines, came nearly a month after lawmakers voted to impeach the president.
Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn., was the only Democrat who voted against the resolution. Rep. Justin Amash, I-Mich., voted with Democrats. There were no Republican defections.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., had been holding on to the articles — charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress against Trump — in a bid to extract favorable terms for the trial for nearly a month, but she ended her delay after Senate Majority Mitch McConnell made clear he was not willing to negotiate.
