The US House of Representatives voted on Wednesday to launch an impeachment inquiry against President Joe Biden, a process that promises to deepen Washington’s political divide going into an election year in which Biden’s presumptive opponent, former president Donald Trump, will be tied up in legal proceedings.
Before the vote, House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, called the resolution “the next necessary step” in a process that was set in motion by his predecessor, outgoing Representative Kevin McCarthy, a Republican from California.
Johnson said in a Fox News interview that with the resolution, “we’ll be in the best position to do our constitutional responsibility”.
