Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., said he will miss part of the Senate impeachment trial against President Trump in order to remain by his wife’s side as she battles pancreatic cancer. “I am sorry to miss some of the Senate impeachment trial, which is of critical importance to our democracy. The couple was married in December 1976 when they were both students and Nadler had just been elected to the New York State Assembly. Miller has held positions on several New York City and New York state government boards and has taught at Columbia University in Manhattan. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tapped Nadler, along with six other House Democrats, to mount the impeachment case against Trump in the Senate.
