The floor debate on the two articles of impeachment – abuse of power and obstruction of Congress – is expected to last for the next several hours in the Democratically-controlled chamber. If the expected impeachment takes place, the trial will move to the Republican-controlled Senate, where a conviction on the charges is unlikely.
Smith is the Representative for Missouri’s 8th Congressional District, which covers Ozark Radio News’ entire Missouri listening area.
