Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is going to testify before a United States Congressional Committee to answer questions pertaining to the social network’s data privacy practices, following the revelations that the company had released data of nearly 87 million users to a third party, Cambridge Analytica.

Zuckerberg will testify in the Senate on Tuesday and in the House on Wednesday. The Senate Committee on the Judiciary and Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, as well as the Committee on Energy and Commerce, are holding two separate hearings on Facebook’s data privacy scandal.
