Southern Californians Rally For Impeachment Ahead Of Historic House Vote

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Southern Californians braved the chilly weather Tuesday night to call for the impeachment of President Donald Trump.

Impeachment rallies took place from downtown Los Angeles to West Hollywood to Thousand Oaks, the night before the full House of Representatives votes on two articles of impeachment against the president.

In downtown Los Angeles, hundreds chanted, "Impeach! Remove! No Time To Lose!" as Los Angeles City Hall, lit in Christmas green and red, loomed above them. A message projected onto the entrance to City Hall read, "Impeach the Predatory President."

Wednesday's impeachment vote, which is set to take place in the afternoon after more debate, will be just the third in U.S. history.
