Analyst on Congress and the Legislative Process
Witnesses before House committees generally must file an advance copy of their written testimony with the committee, and then limit their oral testimony to a brief summary (Rule XI, clause 2(g)(4)). A question and answer period usually follows a witness’s opening statement. Following hearings, committees usually publish the transcripts of witness testimony and questioning.
