President Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, will testify publicly before Congress on February 7th.

Cohen's testimony will be the first major public hearing for Democrats, who have promised greater scrutiny of Trump.

Cohen is a pivotal figure in investigations by special counsel Robert Mueller into potential coordination between Russia and the Trump campaign, and by federal prosecutors into campaign finance violations related to hush-money payments to two women who say they had sex with Trump. Trump has denied it. Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison. He reports to prison March 6.


The Associated Press will set up live standup positions at the Russell Rotunda, inside the US Capitol.

Please contact AP Washington with your live requirements.
