The reading of all 448 pages of the redacted report, starting at noon Thursday, will take an estimated 12 to 14 hours.
Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon , a member of the House Judiciary Committee, organized the effort for a public reading of the Mueller report. By Rhonda Colvin Rhonda Colvin Video Reporter and Producer covering Congress Email Bio Follow May 14 at 6:10 PM More than 20 House Democrats will stage a marathon public reading of the entire redacted Mueller report beginning Thursday at noon, and likely ending in the early morning hours of Friday.
Scanlon is the vice chairwoman of the House Judiciary Committee, which has subpoenaed the Department of Justice for the full, unredacted report into Russian interference in the 2016 election and has invited special counsel Robert S. Mueller III to testify by May 23. The reading of all 448 pages of the report will take an estimated 12 to 14 hours, Scanlon said. Shifts will be divided up among the readers, including Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler , who will follow Scanlon as the second reader.“I’d be amazed if even 1 percent of the American people have read the Mueller report, in part or in its entirety,” said Rep. Jamie Raskin , who has specifically volunteered to read the last few pages. “We have to catch up the American people any way we can.
The reading will take place in the House Rules Committee Room inside the Capitol and will be live-streamed. Afterward, a recording will be made available in to an audio book.
