Matsui Statement on Attorney General Sessions' Communications with Russian Officials

Today, Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-CA) issued the following statement on reports that Attorney General Jeff Sessions lied under oath during his Senate confirmation hearings:

"I am deeply troubled to learn that it appears Attorney General Sessions lied under oath. If these allegations are true, he must resign immediately. These revelations only reinforce the urgent need for an independent investigation of senior Trump officials' ties to Russia. We must follow the facts wherever they lead us. Only an independent, bipartisan investigation can be counted on to hold this Administration and Attorney General Sessions accountable. The American people deserve the truth."
