Michael Cohen, President Trump's onetime personal attorney, will testify publicly before the House Oversight and Reform Committee next week, the panel's chairman announced late Wednesday. "I am pleased to announce that Michael Cohen’s public testimony before the Oversight Committee is back on, despite efforts by some to intimidate his family members and prevent him from appearing," Rep Elijah Cummings, D-Md., said in a statement. Cohen will now appear before the Oversight Committee on Feb. 27, one day before he is scheduled to be interviewed behind closed doors by the House Intelligence Committee. MICHAEL COHEN PRISON REPORT DATE PUSHED BACK TO MAY 6Cohen's attorneys say he will also testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee sometime this month, but a date has not been formally set. Cohen will not be questioned about the ongoing investigations by Special Counsel Robert Mueller or the House and Senate Intelligence Committees into alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian officials.
