House Democrats unveiled the report summarizing their case for impeachment on Tuesday, one day after Republicans released their own version and interpretation of events, National Public Radio reported.

The report is divided into two sections — one on what the report calls the "scheme" of the Ukraine affair and one on obstruction, according to NPR.

The report argues that the "scheme" was conducted with the "knowledge and approval" of senior administration figures including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former Energy Secretary Rick Perry and acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, NPR reported.
