"Chairman Schiff and Nadler willfully and intentionally violated the Rules of the House of Representatives by abusing and exceeding their powers as Chairmen of Committees," the resolution reads.

McCarthy also references some of Schiff’s “unprecedented” actions, including how he released a redacted version of the whistleblower complaint against Trump over the summer and proceeded to fabricate parts of the phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky in a congressional hearing.
