The United States House of Representatives rejected the attempt to impeach Pete Hesseth.
The House of Representatives of the US Congress rejected in a procedural vote an attempt to initiate impeachment proceedings against Pete Hegseth.
211 members of Congress supported the decision to transfer the initiative to the relevant committee, while 204 voted against.
By the end of the year, Republicans control both houses of Congress. Transferring the impeachment decision of Hesseth to the relevant committee, where members of his party have a majority, means that the initiative was actually blocked.
