Dem says he will force House vote on impeachment Wednesday   By Rebecca Savransky - 12/05/17

The House on Wednesday rejected an effort to impeach President Trump in a vote that

In a 364-58 vote, lawmakers tabled an impeachment resolution from Rep. Al Green ( D-Texas).
Every Republican voted with a majority of Democrats to turn away the resolution, while four Democrats voted "present."
