Meet the 7 House Representatives who will argue the case for convicting Trump in his upcoming impeachment trial

Nadler has represented New York City in Congress since 1992 and has led the Judiciary Committee for the past year, where he held multiple high-profile hearings on Trump.

The New York congressman, who was also in the House during Bill Clinton's impeachment, has served on the Judiciary Committee's subcommittee on the Constitution for 13 years, as Pelosi noted in introducing him as a manager.

Rep. Lofgren, a member of the Judiciary Committee, occupies an unique place in American history as the only member of Congress to have participated in the last three impeachment inquiries.

In the early 1970s, Lofgren served as a staffer to a congressman sitting on the Judiciary Committee as it pursued its impeachment inquiry of Richard Nixon, who ultimately resigned before he could be impeached.

After serving in local elected office in the San Jose area for several years, Lofgren was elected to the House in 1994, and was also a member of Congress during Bill Clinton's impeachment inquiry and trial.

Impeachment is a grave & solemn matter. It's a stress test for our democracy. I hope every Senator is prepared to seriously consider & vote honestly with an open mind for the future of our democracy. (3/3)

As the House Democratic Caucus Chair, Jeffries is a senior member of House leadership, a talented legislator, and widely perceived as a rising star who could even hold Pelosi's position one day.

The New York Times describes him as a "messaging guru" who is "as likely to quote from the Bible as he is from 1990s hip-hop lyrics."

Before his election to the New York State Assembly in 2006 and then to Congress in 2012, Jeffries cut his legal chops as a superstar corporate litigator.

While working as a litigation counsel for CBS & Viacom, Jeffries defended the network in some of its high-profile legal disputes over Janet Jackson's notorious wardrobe malfunction in her performance with Justin Timberlake during the 2004 Superbowl halftime show.

Demings, who is in her second term in Congress representing Central Florida, sits on both the House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees.

She received praise for her effective and pointed questioning of witnesses during the House's impeachment inquiry.

Before her election to Congress in 2016, Demings served in the Orlando Police Department for 27 years and became the department's first female chief in 2007.

Crow is a first-term lawmaker and former US Army Ranger who flipped a formerly Republican-held district in the Denver suburbs in the 2018 midterms.

In addition to a distinguished career as an Army Capitan, Crow practiced law in the Denver area before his election to Congress.

He was also one of seven freshman representatives with national security backgrounds who helped turn the tide in the House towards impeachment with a pivotal Washington Post op-ed backing an inquiry.

Garcia, a first-term congresswoman who represents the Houston area and serves on the Judiciary Committee, previously led a decades-long career working in the city's legal system.

Before being elected to the Texas State Senate and later to Congress, Garcia served the presiding judge for the Houston Municipal System, as Houston's city controller, and was the first woman elected to the Harris County Commissioner's Court.
