.JudiciaryGOP members are pushing to waive RepStefanik onto the panel for its field hearing next week focused on violent crime in NYC.
Although the hearing is taking place hours from Stefanik’s district, GOP lawmakers argued she should join the committee hearing because it is taking place in her home state. However, Republicans are also lobbying for her involvement because of her work on the House Intelligence Committee during former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment in 2019, as well as her ability to ask “good questions.
Republicans announced the hearing last week as a way to undercut the work of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, hoping to erode his credibility as he prosecutes Trump on a number of criminal charges. Democrats on the committee have previously skipped GOP-led field hearings as a way of protest, but several members now plan to attend and hold a counterresponse.
Republicans on the Judiciary Committee subpoenaed former New York County District Attorney Mark Pomerantz to appear before the panel and testify about his previous involvement in the Trump investigation. Pomerantz led the inquiry before resigning last year over Bragg’s initial reluctance to move forward with the case.
