(CNN) Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib plans to file soon an impeachment resolution against President Donald Trump, the freshmen Democratic lawmaker from Michigan announced at a news conference Wednesday.

"Later on this month, I will be joining folks and advocates across the country to file the impeachment resolution to start the impeachment proceedings," said Tlaib, who has repeatedly called for Trump's impeachment.

While Tlaib's resolution is not expected to gain much traction in the immediate future -- Democratic leadership and key committee chairs have stressed that they're not at the impeachment stage in their investigations -- Tlaib's proposal highlights the extent to which a vocal faction of the House Democratic caucus is intent on pushing the issue immediately.

Tlaib downplayed any differences with House Democratic leaders, saying, "when I speak to leadership they constantly remind me I have to represent my district."

She added, "I think every single colleague of mine agrees there's impeachable offenses. That's one thing that we all agree on. We may disagree on the pace."
