The House Judiciary Committee will move forward with a hearing on the Mueller report even though AG Barr opted against testifying.
The House Judiciary Committee moved forward Thursday morning witheven though the star witness they hoped to question, Attorney General William Barr, opted against testifying.
The decision not to appear before the committee — which is holding the hearing one day after Barr was grilled by Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee — could lead to House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., subpoenaing the attorney general. Nadler said Wednesday night that he was not planning to issue a subpoena immediately to compel Barr's testimony and instead would focus on the Department of Justice having missed the subpoena deadline for the full unredacted Mueller report, which was set for Wednesday.
