Cheryl Mills, Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ..

has confirmed that before mid January, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will testify before House Foreign Relations Committee about Benghazi.  [per FNC's Chad Pergram]

here is Chad’s note:

Urgent: Clinton to testify on Hill about Benghazi “before mid-January.”

 

Per Pergram-Capitol Hill

 

Just talked with House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairwoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL). She says she just spoke with Cheryl Mills, Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Ros-Lehtinen says Mills told her the secretary was “healing well” from her concussion and would testify before the panel in open session about Benghazi “before mid-January.”

 

Clinton was supposed to testify tomorrow about Benghazi before becoming injured.

 

Note that Ros-Lehtinen will no longer be the chair of that panel in January. She turns over the gavel to Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA).
