In a vote on Wednesday, January 15, 2020, the US House of Representatives approved the referral of the indictment against President Donald Trump to the Senate in preparation for the start of the trial to remove him, which is expected to start early next week.
According to "Agence France Presse", the decision was supported by 228 deputies, and it was opposed by 193 members of the US House of Representatives, which is controlled by the Democratic Party.
It is noteworthy that the US House of Representatives had launched investigations against Trump in September, before he was charged with abuse of power and obstructing the work of Congress.
