The Senate Judiciary Committee announced Wednesday that Donald Trump Jr. and President Trump's onetime campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, are scheduled to testify before the committee next Wednesday during a public hearing.

Both men, as well as Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, attended a meeting in June 2016 with a Kremlin-linked attorney who offered to provide harmful information on Hillary Clinton. A lawyer for Kushner confirmed to NBC News that Kushner will speak to the Senate Intelligence Committee in a closed session on Monday. Trump Jr. and Manafort will appear in front of a panel about foreign influence in elections.
