House to vote on resolution condemning Trump over whistleblower complaint
The House will vote on a resolution Wednesday demanding that the Trump administration release a controversial whistleblower complaint involving the president and Ukraine to Congress.

Why it matters: The resolution is non-binding, but marks the first formal vote on a rapidly unraveling Ukraine controversy that now threatens to be the impetus for impeachment. The bill also calls on Trump and his associates to cease any efforts to discredit the whistleblower or block them from testifying.
