Convicted sex trafficker Ghilan Maxwell is scheduled to answer questions today to a House committee.
The deposition is to be virtual and private.
Maxwell is serving 20 years in prison for helping late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
NPR Scott Newman reports.
Republicans on the House Oversight Committee have called on Maxwell to answer questions about Epstein,
his crimes, and the powerful people who associated with him, President Trump, among them.
They include politicians, entrepreneurs, academics, and entertainers.
Some lawmakers want to know the names of 25 men who Maxwell says in court papers entered into secret settlements and were not part of the Epstein investigation.
But Maxwell is expected to invoke her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination,
and may say little or nothing to the committee.

A federal judge is ordering the FBI to release records about its seizure of 2020 presidential election ballots in Georgia.
NPR Stephen Fowler has more.
The FBI has until Tuesday to publish a redacted copy of the affidavit it used to seize election material from Fulton County's elections office.
The Saturday order comes after more than 650 boxes of election material were taken on January 28 with little public explanation.
Fulton County is home to Atlanta and has been ground zero for conspiracies about President Trump's 2020 election defeat.
There's no evidence of widespread fraud in elections,
including the 2020 race, which concluded more than five years ago.
