WASHINGTON, Dec. 13 (Xinhua) -- U.S. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer on Friday announced that the Democrat-led House will vote on the two articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump next week.
"Next week, these two articles of impeachment - on abuse of power and obstruction of Congress - will come to the House Floor for consideration," Hoyer said in a statement.
The announcement came shortly after the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee approved the two articles strictly along party lines.
