The House of Representatives voted 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 after weeks of delay.
The resolution, which passed 228-193 largely along party lines, came nearly a month after lawmakers voted to impeach the president on two counts.
Pelosi is expected to hold a formal signing of the articles Wednesday evening before a House clerk walks them to the Senate.
