New - Pelosi and Raskin to introduce bill creating a commission to review President’s health and fitness for office. This is what she was referring to when she referred to 25th Amendment. She’s having a press conference tomorrow 
They're introducing a bill that appears to be based on what Raskin has proposed in the past.
In Raskin's previous bill, it would establish a bipartisan commission that would -- at the direction of Congress -- carry out a medical examination of the President

“to determine whether he is "mentally or physically unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office." The 11-member commission would be appointed by leaders of the House and Senate. The commission in his past bill would be required to report its findings to Congress.
Under section 4 of the 25th Amendment, it says either a Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet or the VP and a majority of another body "as Congress may by law provide" can determine if the President is unable to do his job.
