House Judiciary aides working with representatives on impeachment articles in preparation of potential vote
From CNN's Jeremy Herb and Lauren Fox
House Judiciary Committee aides are consulting with the authors of one of the Democratic impeachment resolutions Reps. David Cicilline, Jamie Raskin and Ted Lieu in order to prepare for a potential impeachment vote on the House floor next week, according to three sources.
The aides are helping to edit and fine-tune the impeachment resolution, the sources said, which includes the charge of inciting an insurrection.
Some background: The aides are helping to ready the impeachment resolution so House Democrats can move quickly to the floor if they decide to move forward and vote to impeach President Trump following the Trump-incited riots at the Capitol.
The resolution from Cicilline, Raskin and Lieu appears to be the vehicle that would be used for impeachment, and it has 120 co-sponsors so far. House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said Thursday that he supported bypassing his committee and moving impeachment articles straight to the floor.

And Raskin just lost his son... can't imagine how stressed and upset he must be.
