House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Friday announced and unveiled a measure to create a congressional body that would examine President Donald Trump’s or any other president’s fitness for office and possibly invoke the 25th Amendment.

The legislation would create a commission to allow Congress to intervene under the 25th Amendment to the Constitution and remove the president from executive duties—with just 25 days to go before the Nov. 3 election.
