Attorney General Jeff Sessions will testify in a public hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee Tuesday afternoon, the committee chairman said in a statement Monday.

Sessions will be facing former Senate colleagues over his role in the controversy around ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, part of an escalating investigation into possible Russian meddling in the 2016 elections.
