Ex-Trump aide Hicks agrees to give campaign documents to Congress, despite White House directive
WASHINGTON - Former White House Communications Director Hope Hicks, once a close aide to President Donald Trump, has agreed to turn over documents related to his 2016 campaign to congressional investigators, a key lawmaker said on Tuesday.
She and former White House lawyer Annie Donaldson were subpoenaed on May 21 by the Democratic-led panel as part of its inquiry into whether Trump obstructed Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and contacts between Trump’s campaign team and Moscow.
"I thank her for that show of good faith," Nadler said in a statement that also blasted what he called Trump's"continued obstruction of Congress."
