Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg to Testify Before House Judiciary Committee on Trump’s Hush-Money Trial

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee regarding the recent hush-money trial of President Donald Trump.

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan called Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Joe Biden's DOJ hatchet man Matthew Colangelo to testify before the Weaponization Committee on June 13 following the guilty verdict against Trump.

In a letter to Chairman Jordan, Leslie Dubeck, Bragg's general counsel, expressed the DA's office's commitment to cooperating with the committee's investigation.

Read the letter obtained by Politico: This responds to your letters dated May 31, 2024, inviting representatives of the New York County District Attorney's Office to testify before the House Judiciary Committee Select Subcommittee in a public hearing about the work of this Office.

The Committee's invitation has not made clear the scope of the proposed testimony; and trial court proceedings in People v. Trump are currently scheduled to continue through July 11, 2024.

The District Attorney's Office therefore requests an opportunity to engage with Committee staff to identify a new hearing date, and to better understand the scope and purpose of the proposed hearing.

As with the prior inquiries from this Committee, we look forward to discussing with committee staff how the Office may be able to accommodate the Committee's invitation while also protecting the integrity of an ongoing criminal prosecution and New York's sovereign interests.
