House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Trump wouldn't receive a "get out of jail" card for the Capitol riot.
"People died here on January 6," she said, adding, "That is damage that must be addressed.".
The Senate will soon hold an impeachment trial and determine whether to bar Trump from public office.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday shot down the notion that impeaching President Donald Trump could alienate Republicans and undercut the message of unity that the new Biden administration is advocating.
"I'm not worried about that," Pelosi said at a news conference when she was asked about the impeachment proceedings.
The siege left five people dead, including a Capitol Police officer whom Trump supporters beat with a fire extinguisher.
On January 13, the House of Representatives impeached Trump, charging him with incitement of insurrection over his actions leading up to the riot. »
