They’ll likely be addressing the impeachment inquiry and President Trump asking Ukraine to look into his potential 2020 election rival Joe Biden. Both Democrats and Republicans have also criticized Trump’s withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria, which has allowed Turkey to move in and attack the U.S.-allied Kurds.
