WASHINGTON (AP) – The White House said it has received the House Judiciary Committee’s letter requesting documents related to the Trump administration, family and business as part of an expanding Russia investigation.
White House Press Secretary Sara Sanders said Monday that the White House counsel’s office and relevant officials will review the letter and respond at the appropriate time.
The committee is requesting documents from more than 60 people.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerrold Nadler,(D-NY) said he believes the president obstructed justice.
He said the panel wants to review documents from the Justice Department, the president’s son Donald Trump Jr. and Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg.
Nadler said former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and former White House counsel Don McGahn also are likely targets.
