Demand Congress Release Fusion GPS Transcripts
Representatives of Fusion GPS called on Congressional committees to which it has testified to release the transcripts of its testimony. We demand transparency to see what happened to our democracy in the last presidential election!
Why is this important?
Fusion GPS is the firm that hired Christopher Steele to compile the collection of intelligence reports that has come to be known as the "Steele Dossier." These reports, many of which have been subsequently and independently confirmed, detail the Kremlin's efforts to get Donald Trump elected in the 2016 presidential election.
Fusion GPS has given a total of over 21 hours of testimony to three different Congressional committees about the details of Christopher Steele's investigation and the firm publicly called for publication of the transcripts of that testimony in the following New York Times op-ed published this week.
The American people have a right to know how our election was influenced in order to prevent it from happening again in elections to come.
When asked in the past if he would vote in favor of publicly releasing the transcripts of Fusion GPS' testimony Chuck Grassley, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, had indicated that he would vote in favor of release once the process of reviewing the transcripts for redaction was complete. Recent reporting indicates that process is complete so there is no reason those transcripts and any others from Fusion GPS should not be made available to the public.
Americans have the right to know the truth!
