Chairman concerned his committee hasn’t seen all the evidence

WASHINGTON – House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler, issued a subpoena Friday demanding Attorney

DAILY General William Barr release a full, underacted version of the report authored by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III.

“My committee needs and is entitled to the full version of the report and the underlying evidence with past practice. The redactions appear to be significant,” Nadler wrote in a statement released Friday.

The chairman is concerned that his committee hasn’t seen evidence the special counsel collected to make the case outlined in a redacted version of Mueller’s 448-page report released Thursday.

Nadler’s subpoena orders the Department of Justice to provide all requested materials to his committee by 10 a.m. on May 1.

The subpoena demands that the Department of Justice provide the Judiciary Committee completely unredacted copies of all documents included or referenced within the report, and “all investigative materials created by the Special Counsel’s Office.”

“Even the redacted version of the report outlines serious instances of wrongdoing by President Trump and some of his closest associates. It now falls on Congress to determine the full scope of that alleged misconduct and to decide what steps we must take moving forward,” he wrote.

Rep. Doug Collins, ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, issued a statement accusing Nadler of rushing a subpoena that is “wildly overbroad.”

“(The subpoena) commands the department to provide Congress with millions of records that would be plainly against the law to share because the vast majority of these documents came as a result of nearly 2,800 subpoenas from a grand jury that is still ongoing,” the Georgia Republican said in a statement.
