The House Intelligence Committee is set to interview Jared Kushner next Tuesday, a day after Kushner’s scheduled interview with the Senate Intelligence Committee.

The House panel announced its interview on Friday, calling it “part of the committee’s ongoing probe into the Russian active measures campaign in the 2016 election.”


Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and close adviser, is testifying in a closed-door session before the Senate panel on Monday, his lawyer has previously confirmed.

Both panels are looking into possible coordination between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin as Russia sought to sway last year’s presidential election toward Trump.

Kushner has emerged as a key figure in the investigations because of his repeated contacts with Russians, including a meeting last year organized by Donald Trump Jr. with a Russian lawyer.

Some Democrats are now calling for Kushner’s security clearance to be revoked.
