WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry, a member of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet who has played a pivotal role in the Ukraine controversy, will refuse to testify as requested next week in the Democratic-led impeachment inquiry against Trump, an Energy Department spokeswoman said on Friday.
Perry’s refusal represented the latest instance of Trump’s administration refusing to cooperate in the fast-moving inquiry in the House of Representatives.
Trump said on Oct. 17 that Perry was resigning from his Cabinet post and would step down by the end of the year.
Perry, White House budget office acting director Russell Vought and two other officials were asked to testify on Wednesday next week in a closed session before the three House committees leading the inquiry, an official working on the probe said.

Okay, I think Shiff and his staff attorneys will not be cowed by this move, bring it on.......................after all, I can't wait to watch Perry's attorneys put their hand over the micro-phone and whisper in his ear.......................on every question....................and don't complain Perry if you were not afforded due process, you were, by skipping the congressional grand jury process in a impeachment hearing, you really are idiot.....................were you afraid that in that setting you would lie, but now you can just do it out in the open and invoke the fifth.....................
