The House Rules Committee voted on Oct. 30 to advance the impeachment process resolution after agreeing to none of the 17 amendments proposed by Republicans.

The GOP members of the committee “showed up at committee with less than 24 hours notice prepared to have substantive, meaningful debate on the Pelosi impeachment process resolution. They offered 17 ideas to bring fairness and due process to H. Res. 660,” the group said in a statement.
