'In place of this recess, we urge you to begin an aggressive hearing schedule, swiftly draft articles of impeachment, and vote to impeach Trump this fall,' the progressive organizations wrote to House Democrats.

Several prominent progressive groups are calling on House Democratic leadership to cancel an upcoming two-week recess in order to expedite impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.

"In place of this recess, we urge you to begin an aggressive hearing schedule, swiftly draft articles of impeachment, and vote to impeach Trump this fall," the progressive organizations wrote to Pelosi and Nadler. There was discussion during a private Wednesday morning Democratic caucus meeting about having certain committees work during the recess, according to Rep. Karen Bass , who sits on Judiciary. However, there has been no official decision on the matter.

Recess? You’ve got to be kidding, right? The House was out of session from July 26th until Sept. 9th! How could they possibly be talking about ANOTHER recess?!? That’s Trump-like work ethic right there, SpeakerPelosi!

This is what I don't understand about our government today they have a recess last month then they have a recessed this month and then they're going to have a recessed for Christmas holidays how many recesses do you get in stupid School?

Do it.....no have to draw this out

what liberal groups do not understand is that the president is elected by the electoral college not the popular vote that is to say 1 person in a 50 people populated country has the voting power of 5 million guys in a 30 million populated country

I agree they should not lose momentum.
