After the House voted to impeach President Trump Wednesday, President-elect Biden said the chamber had held the president “accountable” and asked the Senate to do their “constitutional responsibilities” on impeachment – along with “other urgent business.”
“Today, in a bipartisan vote, the House voted to impeach and hold President Trump accountable,” Biden tweeted hours after the 232-197 vote to impeach Trump for “incitement of insurrection.” “Now, the process continues to the Senate—and I hope they’ll deal with their Constitutional responsibilities on impeachment while also working on the other urgent business of this nation.”
