House Democrats will request documents from more than 60 people this week as they step up investigations into allegations of obstruction of justice and abuse of power in the administration of US president Donald Trump.
Jerry Nadler, the Democratic chairman of the House judiciary committee, said the panel would on Monday request documents from individuals in the White House and justice department, as well as from Donald Trump Jr, the president’s son, and Trump Organisation chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg.
Documents may also be requested from John Kelly, former White House chief of staff, and Don McGahn, the former White House counsel, according to Mr Nadler.
