Hoyer Statement on the Firing of FBI Director James Comey
WASHINGTON, DC - House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today after President Trump announced he was firing FBI Director James Comey:
"For the President to fire the head of a law enforcement agency investigating his own campaign's ties to a foreign adversary - one proven to have sought to sway the election in his favor - is deeply troubling and raises serious questions. President Trump needs to explain exactly why he dismissed FBI Director Comey and provide Congress and the American people with a full accounting and justification for this move. It must be determined whether there was any political motivation or conflict of interest underlying this decision. Congress has a responsibility to seek answers."
