The materials were published as part of the House's evidence ahead of the Senate trial expected to begin next week. The new Parnas documents ratcheted up the push from Democrats for the Senate to allow documents to be obtained during the trial that the Trump administration blocked in the House impeachment inquiry. House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, the House's lead impeachment manager, said his panel was still poring through the Parnas materials. GOP senators question new evidenceBut several Senate Republicans were non-committal on whether they will allow new evidence to be presented in the Senate trial, and they brushed aside the new revelations that emerged Tuesday.
