The congressional task force investigating the first assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump scheduled its first hearing for next Thursday, ostensibly focused on failures related to the "Secret Service's Reliance on State and Local Law Enforcement."

The panel has requested reams of documents and interviews as it ramps up its probe into the July attack on Trump, though it hasn't yet announce witnesses for next week's hearing. The task force has a mid-December deadline for issuing a report and legislative recommendations based on its findings.

The bipartisan task force was created by a vote of the full House with a limited purview on the July 13 assassination attempt, but the House is expected to soon act to expand the panel's authority to include last weekend's apparent attempt on Trump's life. Its lawmakers were briefed Wednesday by the Secret Service after the latest incident and members praised its handling of the latest incident.
