WASHINGTON _ The third most senior House Democrat wants a vote on articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump _ and the charges against him to include obstruction of justice related to the findings of former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.
That controversial strategic position, laid out by House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., in a brief interview with McClatchy on Tuesday evening, is the strongest and most decisive statement yet by a member of the House Democratic leadership team.
It also comes amid a hushed internal debate over how best to proceed.
