The House of Representatives will vote to impeach President Trump for a second time starting at 9:00 this morning.
Earlier, Vice President Mike Pence sent Speaker Nancy Pelosi a letter saying he would not invoke the 25th amendment to remove Trump from office.
Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz says this impeachment attempt is unpopular and there are more important matters for Congress to handle for the people.
