The Home, managed by Democrats, holds a flooring vote on one

or extra articles of impeachment.

Lower than a majority of the

Home votes to question.

The Home determines if

and when when to ship the

article to the Senate. It

might do nothing additional,

successfully holding out the

prices in perpetuity.

IF ARTICLE WITHHELD UNTIL

AFTER CHANGE IN CONTROL

Republican-led trial unlikely:

Mitch McConnell has mentioned

the Senate won’t return till

Jan. 19, the final full day of

Trump’s time period, making

a trial unlikely earlier than the

inauguration.

Democratic-led trial:

Later this month, management of

the Senate will flip to

Democrats. Upon receipt of

the article, the Senate should

quickly start a trial, however there

is discretion within the schedule

and tempo of the method.

Afterward, the Senate holds

a vote to convict or acquit

the previous president.
