Sen. Hawley: �Pelosi Is Attempting to Obstruct a Senate Trial� by Withholding Impeachment Articles

Monday, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) criticized House Speaker Nancy Pelosi�s (D-CA) decision to withhold articles of impeachment from the Senate.

Hawley accused Pelosi on �Fox & Friends� of �attempting to obstruct a Senate trial� and called for a change in the Senate rules to allow for the case to be dismissed if she continues her refusal to send over the articles.

�You know, Nancy Pelosi is attempting to obstruct a Senate trial. That�s all there is to it,� Hawley stated. �The Constitution says that the Senate is the one that will have the trial. It says the trial will follow the impeachment. Now, she�s trying to prevent a trial. She�s trying to obstruct it and upend the Constitution. Here�s what needs to happen: we need to change the Senate rules to allow the Senate to dismiss this case if she refuses to send the articles over.�
