House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerry Nadler issued a request Thursday for special counsel Robert Mueller to testify to Congress “as soon as possible.”
“As I have already communicated to the Department of Justice, I request your testimony before the Judiciary Committee as soon as possible – but, in any event, no later than May 23, 2019,” Nadler wrote. “I look forward to working with you on a mutually agreeable date.”
Mueller’s report will be released on Thursday, but some elements of the nearly 400-page briefing will be redacted – and Nadler and his committee will likely want to ask the special counsel to fill in those gaps.

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
