The June 19 testimony will be held behind closed doors, according to Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler, but a transcript will be made public afterward.
Hope Hicks, a former Trump campaign aide and former White House communications director, has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee next week, according to the committee's Democratic chairman, Representative Jerrold Nadler.
The committee is currently investigating whether obstruction of justice was committed by President Donald Trump based on incidences that were laid out in the Mueller report. Hicks was a key figure in the former special counsel's 22-month-long investigation, with her name appearing 184 times in the 448-page report, mainly in portions that detail potential obstruction of justice events.
President Donald Trump points to former communications director Hope Hicks shortly before making his way to board Marine One on the South Lawn and departing from the White House on March 29, 2018.Nadler's committee has long sought compliance from several former Trump officials as it investigates the potential obstruction cases. Mueller did not charge Trump with any crimes, stating last month that indicting a sitting president was prohibited due to longstanding Justice Department guidelines.
