Nadler subpoenas Hope Hicks and McGahn's former aide for testimony
By Olivia Beavers and Morgan Chalfant - 05/21/19 04:00 PM EDT
House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday subpoenaed two former White House officials to testify before his committee and provide documents, a move that is likely to further exacerbate a standoff with the White House.
Nadler issued subpoenas to Annie Donaldson, who served as chief of staff to former White House counsel Don McGahn, and former White House communications director Hope Hicks, one of President Trump's longest-serving aides in the West Wing.
The two subpoenas mark an ongoing fight between the White House and Congress as House Democrats seek to compel the testimony of other current and former administration officials as part of their sprawling investigations into Trump and his administration.
