The US House of Representatives has passed a resolution to submit articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump to the Senate for a trial.
The resolution passed largely along party lines by 228 votes to 193.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will sign a copy of the measure with the newly announced team of lawmakers who will prosecute the case against Trump.
The House impeached the president last month. The Senate will decide whether to convict and remove him from office.
The Senate trial will be only the third of a US president in history.
While Democrats control the House, Trump's fellow Republicans hold sway in the Senate 53-47, and are all but certain to acquit him.
