Trump personal attorney receives, rejects House ask for info
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump's personal attorney, Michael Cohen, has received and rejected a request for documents as part of Congress's ongoing investigation into Russia's election meddling and contacts with the Trump campaign.
Cohen, a longtime attorney for the Trump Organization, remains a personal lawyer for Trump. He served as a cable television surrogate for the Republican during the presidential campaign.
The House intelligence committee's request for information from Cohen came as the investigators continued to scrutinize members of Trump's inner circle.
The president's first national security adviser, Michael Flynn, has received subpoenas from the Senate intelligence committee regarding his Russian contacts and his business records. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-California, said last week that a subpoena from the House panel was likely.
