The Honorable Doug Collins

United States House of Representatives
House Committee on the Judiciary

Washington DC, 20515
Dear Ranking Member Collins:
Earlier this week, Chairman Schiff announced that the House Permanent Select
Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) is preparing a report summarizing the evidence we have
found this far, which will be transmitted to the Judiciary Committee soon after Congress returns
from the Thanksgiving recess.' That report will describe, among other things, a months-long
effort in which President Trump again sought foreign interference in our elections for his
personal and political benefit at the expense of our national interest and an unprecedented
campaign of obstruction in an effort to prevent the Committees from obtaining documentary
evidence and testimony.2 As you are also aware, the Judiciary Committee has been engaged in
an investigation concerning allegations that the President may have engaged in acts of
obstruction of justice, as detailed in Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Report on the
Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election. For detailed
discussion of the scope of the impeachment inquiry, I refer you to the report accompanying
House Resolution 660.3
In anticipation of our consideration of these matters, I am writing with respect to the
operation of section 4(c) of H. Res. 660, pursuant to which [t]he ranking minority member of
the Committee on the Judiciary is authorized, with the concurrence of the Chair of the
Committee on the Judiciary, to require [issuance of subpoenas or interrogatories] as deemed
Chairman Adam Schiff, H. Permanent Select Comm. On Intelligence, Dear Colleague from Chairman
Adam Schiff on Next Steps for1mpeachment Inquiry, Nov. 25, 2019.
2d.
See H. Rep. No. 116-266, at pp. 2-4 (2019).
