In new letter, Pelosi lays out next steps:

Dems try to pass Raskin bill tomorrow via UC:

“This resolution calls on the Vice President to convene and mobilize the Cabinet to activate the 25th Amendment to declare the President incapable of executing the duties of his office”
“If we do not receive Unanimous Consent, this legislation is planned to be brought up on the Floor the following day.  We are calling on the Vice President to respond within 24 hours. 
 
Next, we will proceed with bringing impeachment legislation to the Floor.”
This was lengthy discussion during leadership call last night.

Would they still move forward with impeachment this week after passing Raskin bill and if so when?

Pelosi letter not entirely clear on this point. It just says they’ll give Pence 24 hours then move w impeachment
