Larson Joins Call for Bipartisan Investigation on Russian Interference in U.S. Elections

December 12, 2016

Washington – Today, Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) released the following statement on the Central Intelligence Agency’s report that Russia had interfered in the United States’ elections:

“Any evidence of foreign tampering in our elections must be taken seriously. Free and fair elections are the foundation of our democracy, and the nation deserves to know that we are doing everything we can to safeguard the electoral process and protect the will of the people from outside influences. The report of Russian interference in our elections cannot be ignored. I stand with leaders on both sides of the aisle who have called for a full, bipartisan investigation into this attack on our democracy. The American public deserves to know the truth, and our institutions must be protected from further intrusions.”
