The reading of all 448 pages of the special counsel’s report is expected to last between 12 to 14 hours, concluding in the early hours of Friday morning.,
By Rhonda Colvin Rhonda Colvin Video Reporter and Producer covering Congress Email Bio Follow May 16 at 4:41 PM More than 25 House Democrats, including the chairman and vice chairwoman of the House Judiciary Committee, began a nonstop marathon reading of the entire redacted Mueller report Thursday afternoon.
Earlier this week, Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon told The Washington Post: “We’ve been saying for weeks that if you think there was no obstruction and no collusion, you haven’t read the Mueller report. So, the ongoing quest has been how do we get that story out there while we are waiting for the witnesses to come in.”
The House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed the Department of Justice for the full, unredacted report into Russian interference in the 2016 election and has requested that special counsel Robert S. Mueller III appear before it by May 23. The committee has also scheduled a hearing to question former White House counsel, Donald McGahn, on May 21; his attendance has not been confirmed.
