After first claiming Robert Mueller had tentatively agreed to testify May 15, Rep. davidcicilline now says the date has merely been proposed
A member of the House Judiciary Committee first said Sunday morning that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had reached a tentative agreement to testify in front of the panel on May 15, but then walked that statement back and clarified that the May 15 date had merely been proposed to Mueller.
The congressman responded,"The representative for the special counsel has but obviously until the date comes we never have an absolute guarantee. The White House has so far indicated they would not interfere with Mr. Mueller's attempts to testify. We hope that won't change." "There has not been compliance yet," said the congressman. "We obviously have to wait until the morning to see if the attorney general will comply. I think if the attorney general does not, the chairman will ask the committee to move forward with a contempt citation."
This has led some lawmakers to call for Barr to resign or for Congress to impeach him. Between those concerns and the possibility of a contempt citation, Wallace asked Cicilline about whether Barr could end up being arrested.
