Senate MPs retained all their party affiliations when they voted for all three of them, rejecting them by two to three. At 4:30 pm local time (American time), Schumer introduced the Fourth Amendment. The plan calls for the testimony of Mick Maloney, the interim chief of staff at the White House.

The legal amendments introduced by Schumer are part of a Democratic effort in both chambers of Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate) to attack a resolution specifying the rules of the impeachment court.
