Trump Jr. was first invited to speak to the committee in an open hearing in July, soon after he admitted to meeting with a Russian attorney under the pretenses of receiving ammunition to use against Clinton in the presidential campaign. The committee agreed to allow him to delay his visit and has since been negotiating his testimony.

Trump Jr. provided the committee with 250 pages of documents as part of that agreement.

According to the CNN report, senior committee staff will interview Trump Jr. in front of senators at the closed-door meeting.

Trump adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner and then-campaign manager Paul Manafort also attended the meeting with Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya, which Trump Jr. has said yielded no useful information.

Trump Jr. released the emails inviting him to the meeting that would offer “very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump” from the “Crown prosecutor of Russia” that would “incriminate” Clinton.

The White House has minimized the importance of the meeting, comparing it to Democratic tactics.

“[The media is] focused on a meeting that Don Jr. had, [but] no consequence when the Democrats actually colluded with a foreign government like Ukraine," said press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
