Next week's hearing will give Trump and his legal team the option to participate
Democrats insist they have yet to begin formally drafting articles of impeachment, saying publicly they want to finish the investigation before deciding whether to move forward.
Some Democrats on the Judiciary Committee have argued in favor of including additional charges, including on everything from special counsel Robert Mueller’s findings on obstruction of justice to claims that Trump has used his office for self-enrichment. In recent weeks, the panel's top Republican Doug Collins has sought answers about whether Trump will be allowed to call his own witnesses. Collins has also asked for the Intelligence Committee to turn over its entire evidence file, noting that Clinton investigator Kenneth Starr turned over dozens of boxes of material to the Judiciary Committee ahead of the Clinton impeachment.
Democrats have not ruled out other efforts to give Trump's White House lawyers more options to participate in the hearings, and in fact the rules adopted by the House contemplate these possibilities. But their initial announcement for next week's hearing didn't spell them out.
