The total number of House Democrats who have publicly said they’d vote for an impeachment inquiry is up to 104 — 14 shy of a majority of the Democratic Caucus

Four more rank-and-file Democrats called for opening an impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump on Sunday, inching lawmakers closer to a significant symbolic milestone: a majority of all House Democrats.

Clark’s public call on Friday was the exclamation point in the House, but two other notable moves came that day when Reps. Mike Levin and Chris Pappas announced they supported an impeachment inquiry, as well. Both are among Democrats’ most vulnerable members seeking reelection, the so-called frontliners whom the House Democrats’ campaign arm is working to defend. Five others in that group have previously endorsed an impeachment inquiry.

Democrats who support an inquiry have also privately argued that reaching a majority of the caucus would be a turning point in their efforts, coaxing more reluctant lawmakers off the sidelines and ramping up pressure on Democratic leaders.
