WATCH: Attorney General William Barr's full testimony on Mueller report before Senate committee

Attorney General William Barr will testify May 1 on his handling of special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia report, in his first appearance before Congress since he released a redacted version of the report last month. Democrats are expected to focus on whether President Donald Trump obstructed justice in the Russia investigation. Mueller said in his report that he chose not to draw a conclusion on whether the president obstructed justice. Barr concluded that there was no enough evidence, based on the report, that Trump obstructed justice.
