The US House of Representatives is working swiftly to try to oust President Donald Trump from office.

Republicans blocked a resolution introduced this morning calling on Vice President Mike Pence and the federal cabinet to invoke their constitutional authority to remove Trump from office.

But the full House is set to hold a roll call vote on that resolution tomorrow, and it's expected to pass.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says Pence will have 24 hours to respond before the House proceeds to Plan B, impeachment on a single charge of incitement of insurrection.

A vote on that could come Wednesday.
