(AP) – As the House prepares to vote this week on impeaching President Donald Trump, Senate Democrats are proposing a weekslong Senate trial that would include testimony from former national security adviser John Bolton and acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney.
Senate Democrats also want testimony from Robert Blair, a top Mulvaney aide, and budget official Michael Duffey.
Democrats released a detailed outline of their trial proposal on Sunday.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York proposed the structure for what he called a ‘’fair and honest’’ trial in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
Under Schumer’s plan, the trial could last three or more weeks.
