US President-elect Joe Biden has expressed hope that the Senate will consider the impeachment of outgoing President Donald Trump among other urgent issues.
On Wednesday, the US House of Representatives voted 232-197 to impeach Trump on charges of inciting violence against the US government. US Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell has already dismissed the possibility of a fair impeachment trial of Trump concluding before Biden is sworn in on January 20.
"I hope that the Senate leadership will find a way to deal with their Constitutional responsibilities on impeachment while also working on the other urgent business of this nation," Biden said in a statement on late Wednesday.
