Adams Statement on Former FBI Director Comey Testimony Today

June 8, 2017

Washington, D.C.—Congresswoman Alma Adams (NC-12) released the following statement after former FBI Director Comey testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee today regarding President Trump and Russian interference in the 2016 election.

"Director Comey's shocking testimony illustrates the need for an outside independent commission to investigate the connection between the Trump administration and Russia," said Congresswoman Adams. "Today's hearing was the first of many that will be required to get the answers the American people demand. It's clear that a thorough investigation is essential and the special counsel's work must be supplemented by an independent commission--the integrity and security of our democracy depend upon it."
