On October 31, 2019, the US House of Representatives will vote on a resolution that outlines the procedures for the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.
The resolution, which was announced by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, aims to push back against Trump and Republicans who have argued that an impeachment proceeding lacks authorization without a full floor vote.
According to Pelosi, the resolution will 'lay out the next steps for the inquiry' and establish procedures for open hearings, transferring evidence to the Judiciary Committee, and setting forth due process rights for the President and his Counsel.
