Democrats hedge on Christmas impeachment

There are only a dozen days left in the 2019 House legislative calendar, and House Democrats are weighing whether to squeeze in an impeachment vote before they leave town for the year.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders who met privately with Democrats Wednesday did not discuss a date for considering articles of impeachment against President Trump, who they accuse of abusing his office and obstructing Congress.

“There were no dates discussed,” Majority Leader Steny Hoyer of Maryland told reporters Wednesday. “The speaker has said, I’ve said, others have said, we want to do this as expeditiously as possible.”
