WASHINGTON (Reuters) - It is no wonder Democratic investigators in the U.S. Congress want to talk to Hope Hicks, a former close aide to President Donald Trump: She is mentioned in the Mueller report more than 180 times.
On Wednesday, Hicks is slated to speak behind closed doors with the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee. The Democratic-led panel is looking into former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian meddling to assist Trump in the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign, and Trump's attempts to impede Mueller's probe.
