Rep. Al Green attempted to pursue his own initiative without support from the party leadership, but it failed.

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Ko Il-hwan = A U.S. Democratic Party member of the House of Representatives pushed for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, but it failed again due to conflicting opinions within the party.

According to the Internet media Axios on the 15th (local time), the U.S. House of Representatives passed a motion to suspend the vote on President Trump's impeachment proposed by Democratic Representative Al Green (Texas) with 232 votes in favor and 147 against.

47 people did not vote for or against.

A motion to withhold is a motion to stop deliberation on a specific agenda, and if passed, the agenda is effectively discarded.

This is the third time Rep. Green has pushed for impeachment since President Trump returned to the White House, but failed to pass the House of Representatives threshold.

Representative Greene argued that President Trump should be impeached for the deaths caused by federal immigration agents, but did not receive support from Democratic Party leaders.

Within the Democratic Party, some criticism was raised over Rep. Greene's independent submission of an article of impeachment against President Trump ahead of the midterm elections in November.

This is because the election message that the Democratic Party is trying to emphasize may be clouded by the impeachment bill.

In the actual vote, some Democratic lawmakers supported the impeachment push, but other lawmakers voted in favor of the withholding motion submitted by Republican leaders.

Rep. Green called for an open debate against fellow lawmakers who criticized him.
