U.S. Senate continued the impeachment trial of President Clinton with presentations by House managers and the president's defense team over a motion to dismiss

Description:

House of Representatives managers Charles Canady (R-FL) and Asa Hutchinson (R-AK) discuss why the Senate should not move forward with Senator Robert Byrd's (D-WV) motion to dismiss the Bill Clinton impeachment trial entirely. Attorney to the President Nicole Seligman defends the motion to dismiss. Fellow House managers Lindsey Graham (R-SC), George Gekas (R-PA), and Henry Hyde (R-IL) provide their rebuttal to Seligman's statements. Both sides agree that the public deserves a resolution to this issue sooner rather than later. Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) asks for and is granted a closed-door vote on the motion to dismiss.
