House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has officially announced the impeachment managers who will prosecute the case against President Trump.
Pelosi in a news conference Wednesday announced seven impeachment managers: Reps. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), Val Demings (D-Fla.), Jason Crow (D-Colo.), and Sylvia Garcia (D-Texas).
Pelosi noted that this is Lofgren's third impeachment; as The New York Times reports, she was a House Judiciary Committee member during the impeachment of former President Bill Clinton, and she helped in the drafting of the charges against former President Richard Nixon as a law student.
