The allegations are part of a 169-page report that will accompany articles of impeachment. The report: docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/…
FROM THE REPORT: Democrats say Trump's lack of remorse is part of evidence he is likely to continue to take actions to compromise the integrity of the 2020 election. politico.com/news/2019/12/1…
MORE: Democrats also say waiting from the courts to resolve subpoena disputes would be both impractical and contrary to the Constitution granting the House "sole power" over impeachment. Rather, disputes were meant to be resolved during the Senate trial. politico.com/news/2019/12/1…

Addendum: The report itself is 169 pages. The reason others say it's 658 pages is because it includes the hundreds of pages of previously released material, including House Intel Committee's 300-page report and the 120 page House Intel minority report.
