The Republican-led House voted 211-204 on Tuesday to refer Rep. Thomas Massie's impeachment resolution against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to the Judiciary Committee, a procedural step that shelves the effort for this session of Congress, NBC News, NPR, and the House clerk's roll call report. Massie, a Republican from Kentucky who lost his party's primary this year and is leaving Congress, introduced the eight articles and was the only Republican who voted against the referral. President Trump framed the vote as a Democratic effort; Massie, not House Democrats, authored the resolution.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) has filed privileged articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, including three War Powers counts over the Iran war. A House vote could come as early as 5:30 p.m. ET Tuesday; Republicans may table or refer the resolution. NBC has not heard from any other Republican committed to backing it. Trump said he would be disappointed and that Pete has won two wars.
