BREAKING: PELOSI WILL SEND IMPEACHMENT ARTICLES TO SENATE NEXT WEEK

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday that the House will send articles of impeachment to the Senate next week, setting in motion a trial that is likely to run through the end of January.

Pelosi said the House will vote on a resolution to formally transmit the articles after she meets with all House Democrats at 9 a.m. Tuesday.

“I have asked Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler to be prepared to bring to the Floor next week a resolution to appoint managers and transmit articles of impeachment to the Senate,” Pelosi said in a note to the House Democratic conference. “I will be consulting with you at our Tuesday House Democratic Caucus meeting on how we proceed further.”
