Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., has introduced formal articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, accusing him of obstruction of justice.

Sherman, who first drafted the articles in June, formally introduced H.R. 438 on the House floor on Wednesday.

Other Democrats have expressed concern about Shermans effort to impeach Trump over possible ties to Russia, and the resolution had only one cosponsor, Rep. Al Green, D-Tex. A successful vote for impeachment would require a majority in the House, where Republicans have 46 more seats than Democrats.

The articles accuse Trump of violating his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of president of the United States. Trump has prevented, obstructed and impeded the administration of justice during a federal investigation, Shermans resolution says.
