Pressure on Pelosi to send Trump impeachment to Senate as Schumer, McConnell, trade barbs over next steps

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi hasn't indicated when she will send the latest article of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate even as House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, her chief deputy, publicly advocates that the article be sent "as soon as possible."

That was a break from Hoyer, D-Md., who asked if he knew when Pelosi would send the article said: "The speaker’s talking to Mr. Schumer and will determine that, but I’m personally urging them to send it over as soon as possible." Pelosi, in a ceremony with impeachment managers where she signed the article of impeachment that accuses the president of inciting an insurrection, did not say anything about the timing of when she would send the article to the Senate.
