CBSN
Washington — FBI Director Christopher Wray is the next law enforcement official to face grilling by House lawmakers following the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.
Wray is testifying before the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee Wednesday about the FBI's investigation into the July 13 shooting at Trump's rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
In a letter to Wray last week, GOP Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the committee's chairman, said there are "several unanswered questions about the failures that led to the attempted assassination of a president — the first in over 40 years — as well as the FBI's ability to conduct a rapid, transparent, and thorough investigation in the wake of its recent scandals."
Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear banned the use of "conversion therapy" on minors in Kentucky on Wednesday, calling his executive order an overdue step to protect children from a widely discredited practice that tries to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity through counseling. Over 20 other states that have passed laws prohibiting the controversial treatment.
