Overview

- Three Democratic co-sponsors—Reps. Kweisi Mfume, Robin Kelly, and Jerry Nadler—formally withdrew their support after learning the resolution lacked leadership approval.
- House Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar publicly rejected impeachment as a viable strategy, citing Republican majorities in Congress as an insurmountable obstacle.
