"I've got a resolution ... urging her to send over the articles, and what she's doing is out of step with past precedent and an affront to the Senate," Graham told reporters on Capitol Hill. "It's not her job to set the trial."

“We have the votes, once the impeachment trial has begun, to pass a resolution essentially the same, very similar to the 100 to nothing vote in the Clinton trial which sets up, as you may recall, what could best be described maybe as a Phase One,” McConnell said.
