House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said on Sunday morning that House Democrats won’t hold onto the articles of impeachment against President Trump “indefinitely,” but he insisted that his party wants assurances that there will be a fair trial before making the next move.
Although Trump was officially impeached by the House of Representatives on December 18, the next phase of the process — his trial in the Senate, after which the legislative body will vote on whether or not to remove him from office — has been in limbo ever since then. Part of that has to do with the extended holiday break, which is due to end when the legislators return to work next week. But another reason for that is that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has refused to transmit the articles to the Senate until she gets assurances that the trial will be fair.
