Vermont’s U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy: Jeff Sessions backed out of testifying

Late yesterday, Attorney General Jeff Sessions backed out of testifying in front of the Senate Appropriations Committee on Tu‌esday.

This is the second time in only two months in which Sessions has cancelled a scheduled hearing where my colleagues and I would have had the opportunity to ask him about the false testimony he provided during his confirmation hearings, as well as his half-hearted recusal from the investigation into Trump's ties to Russia.

The American people deserve answers. Both the Senate Appropriations Committee and the Judiciary Committee have oversight over the Department of Justice, and Sessions needs to testify publicly in front of both committees.

Add your name right now to demand Sessions testify publicly and send a clear message to the Attorney General: You can't run forever.

Sincerely,

Patrick Leahy
U.S. Senator
