House Democrats sent a letter to the attorney general amid reports that the special counsel would soon conclude the Russia probe.
Senior House Democrats on Friday called on Attorney General William Barr to make public special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 election amid reports the probe is coming to an end.
In a letter to Barr, six House committee chairmen outlined their expectations for the Justice Department, even as a senior Justice Department official told reporters Friday that Mueller’s report will not be completed next week.
“We write to you to express, in the strongest possible terms, our expectation that the Department of Justice will release to the public the report Special Counsel Mueller submits to you — without delay and to the maximum extent permitted by law,” the committee chairs wrote.
