The move will mark the first formal procedure taken by the Democratic-led committee to officially define its 'impeachment investigation,' as Chairman Jerrold Nadler has dubbed it, and will better explain how the probe will operate going forward.
The House Judiciary Committee will vote Thursday on a resolution that will outline parameters of the panel's ongoing investigation into whether articles of impeachment should be filed against President Donald Trump.
"The unprecedented corruption, coverup and crimes by the president are under investigation by the committee as we determine whether to recommend articles of impeachment or other Article 1 remedies," Nadler said in a statement Monday.
Nadler could designate full or subcommittee hearings as part of the impeachment inquiry, allowing smaller panels within the committee to take on some of the work and speed up the process. Information obtained by the committee through subpoenas, interviews, documents or other means shall be kept private, unless Nadler says it can be released publicly. Any material received from the redacted grand jury portions of the Mueller report would be kept private.
