The House of Representatives votes Tuesday evening on whether to advance articles of impeachment against War Secretary Pete Hegseth. 

Kentucky GOP Rep. Thomas Massie filed the articles of impeachment against the secretary on Monday, which accuse Hegseth of illegally launching the war in Iran and killing hundreds of civilians in boat strikes against suspected drug-smugglers in the Caribbean.

Massie initially offered articles of impeachment in September, but Speaker Mike Johnson adjourned the House before a vote could take place.

The vote is scheduled to take place at 5:30 p.m. Eastern and considers whether to block the resolutions or refer them to committee. The vote can be streamed here.
