Democratic House leaders said that the impeachment process resolution, which was slated to be voted on later this week, will enable transparency during the efforts to remove President Donald Trump from office.

House Democrats have been working to build a case against Trump after he allegedly abused the office of the president during a July phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
