The House voted to pass a resolution confirming the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump and outlining the “rules” that will govern the House Intelligence Committee’s fact-finding process, even though that process has already begun.

The measure passed on a nearly strict party line vote, 232-196, with all but two Democrats — Reps. Collin Peterson (D-MN) and Jeff Van Drew (D-NJ) — voting to pass the resolution. Rep. Justin Amash (I-MI), the House’s lone independent, voted to pass the resolution.
