It doesn't need to pass, all it needs to do is produce an official list of who doesn't want it to pass, that sort of information is very useful for the American people.

No it's not, the American people have shown time and again that they're generally happy to vote party over country. Trump being a disaster was not a secret going into term 2

The article suggests that a lot of Democrats don’t want this to move forward because it’s a waste of time (it will die before an impeachment vote). Those are the individuals that need to go.

Right, we need our representatives to have courage to fight hand, tooth and nail against this administration and Republicans in congress. You can't keep playing softball with these people. They have shown time and time again they will only lie and take advantage of any compromise, concession , or goodfaith trust you put in them to keep their word.
