  • The House Judiciary Committee said Monday the hearing will be held April 17 in the Javits Federal Building.
  • The building is in the state’s 10th Congressional District, represented by Democrat Congressman Dan Goldman.
  • The committee says the hearing will focused on crime in the city and is titled “Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan.”
  • Goldman says the hearing is “political theater” and “Instead of focusing on improving the lives of the American people, Jim Jordan has decided to come to my district at the behest of Donald Trump to continue to weaponize Congress to obstruct an ongoing, non-federal criminal prosecution.”
