House Republicans organized the hearing after Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg brought charges against former President Donald Trump for falsifying business documents in relation to hush money payments to two women in 2016.

The hearing is expected to feature at least three witnesses, including the mother of a homicide victim, a bodega clerk who was wrongfully charged with murder, and an anti-crime activist, per reports.
