In impeachment hearings and other debates, the phrase “Strike the last word” means that the member of the house wants five more minutes to finish his speech during the hearing.
EXPLANATION:
Generally, a member of the House of Representatives is given a total time of 10 minutes for their say on whether they are against or in favor of the going issue.
Saying that phrase gives the member the power of the amendment to continue his speech for five more minutes.
