US congressional panel gives President Donald Trump a week to say whether his legal counsel intends to introduce evidence and call witnesses in upcoming impeachment proceedings
President Donald Trump greets the audience before delivering remarks at the White House, October 4, 2019
The procedures set out rules by which the president can call witnesses, introduce evidence and make presentations. The impeachment probe is looking into whether Trump abused his power to pressure Ukraine to launch investigations of political rival Joe Biden and a discredited conspiracy theory promoted by Trump that Ukraine, not Russia, interfered in the 2016 US presidential election.
After Wednesday, the Judiciary panel, which could recommend a full House impeachment vote before Christmas, is expected to hold a hearing to examine the evidence report and further proceedings to consider formal articles of impeachment.
