The House Judiciary Committee voted along party lines to reject an amendment that would have removed the “abuse of power” article from the two articles of impeachment that have been announced against President Donald Trump. The House Judiciary Committee on Dec. 12 considered revisions to the articles of impeachment and voted on whether to send those articles to the full U.S. House of Representatives.

Jerrold Nadler, the chair of the House Judiciary Committee, pushed back on Republicans’ arguments against the abuse of power charge.
