House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced on Tuesday that the House will launch a formal impeachment inquiry of President Trump, and she has the support of more than 200 representatives.

There are 235 Democrats in the House, and as of Tuesday night, 202 of them are backing the inquiry, including 22 members of the Judiciary Committee, The New York Times reports. They are joined by one independent, former Republican Rep. Justin Amash (Mich.).

Sixteen House Democrats have said they do not think the timing is right, or they have not yet made up their minds, including Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii). Gabbard, who is also running for president, told the Times she believes "impeachment at this juncture would be terribly divisive for the country." Seventeen candidates have not responded to the Times' request for comment.

Since Monday, when more information was revealed about Trump asking Ukraine's president to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden's son, 68 Democrats, many from swing districts, have come forward in support of the impeachment inquiry. Catherine Garcia
