submitted the following resolution2     
which was referred to the ,committee on 
,ethics1 and in addition to the         
,committee on ,rules1 for a period to be
 subsequently determined by the         
,speaker1 in each case for consideration
 of such provisions as fall within the  
jurisdiction of the committee concerned 
,,resolution  ,expressing the sense of  

the ,house of ,representatives that upon
 adoption by the ,house1 the ,speaker of
 the ,house is required to transmit     
without delay articles of impeachment to
 the ,senate and must do so immediately4
  ,whereas the ,constitution grants the 
sole ,power of ,impeachment to the      
,house of ,representatives as a body1   
not to the ,speaker or any individual   
,representative2 ,whereas1 on ,december 
#ah1 #bjai1 in a purely partisan vote1 a
 majority of the ,house of              
,representatives voted to adopt #b      
articles of impeachment against ,donald 
,john ,trump1 ,president of the ,united 
,states2 ,whereas shortly after the     
,house of ,representatives voted to     
adopt the #b articles of impeachment1   
,speaker of the ,house ,nancy ,pelosi   
unilaterally decided to withhold        
transmitting the articles pending       
information on the ,senate's trial      
procedures while stating right now the  
president is impeached2 ,whereas the    
,house of ,representatives completes its

 constitutionally mandated impeachment  
functions upon adopting an article of   
impeachment2 ,whereas the ,constitution 
grants the ,senate the sole ,power to   
try all ,impeachments2 and ,whereas the 
,constitution provides1 and the ,supreme
 ,court has affirmed1 that the ,senate  
has wide discretion to determine the    
procedures for conducting an impeachment
 trial3 ,now1 therefore1 be it  ,that   
the ,house of ,representatives-- 7#a7   
finds that--  7,a7 the ,constitution    
obligates the ,house of ,representatives
 to transmit without delay articles of  
impeachment to the ,senate upon adoption
 by the ,house2 and  7,b7 the ,speaker  
of the ,house of ,representatives       
refusal to transmit articles of         
impeachment to the ,senate is an abuse  
of power2  7#b7 strongly disapproves of 
the ,speaker of the ,house of           
,representatives unilateral and         
unwarranted decision to refuse to       
transmit the #b articles of impeachment 
adopted on ,december #ah1 #bjai1 by a   

majority of the ,house in an attempt to 
improperly control impeachment trial    
procedures in the ,senate2 and  7#c7    
demands the ,speaker immediately        
transmit the articles of impeachment to 
the ,senate to allow it to exercise its 
sole ,power to try all ,impeachments44
