At least 32 members of the House have publicly called for the launch of an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump, based on his refusal to comply with congressional subpoenas and his obstruction of justice. The impeachment inquiry still faces resistance from the Democratic Party leaders who control the 435-member chamber. They include eight Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee ― one-third of the party members on the panel. Just two senators ― Democrats Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Kamala Harris of California ― publicly back an impeachment inquiry. An impeachment inquiry would centralize Congress’ investigation into whether Trump committed impeachable offenses in the House Judiciary Committee.
