Will this hearing only be attended by the Judiciary Committee, or is it likely that other members of the House will attend? I'm gonna fire off a letter to my non-responding representative either way.

Unless a member not on the committee has an extremely strong desire to participate, generally nobody else does. It's technically against committee rules for non-committee members to sit-in on the hearing, although that can be waived. Normally if a member has a very strong interest (ie their state is directly impacted, but nobody from the committee is from that state) or requested the committee hold the hearing, then one might ask.
