[February 17, 2017 Letter to the Inspector General of the Department of Justice Michael E. Horowitz]
From the Letter: "As you know, it is the unanimous conclusion of seventeen U.S. Intelligence agencies that the government of Vladimir Putin engaged in a massive campaign to influence the 2016 election in favor of President Trump/ Over the course of the past week, it has become increasingly clear that members of the trump campaign were in direct contact with agents of the Russian intelligence agencies. Given the significance and magnitude of these developments, we believe it is appropriate that your office--in conjunction with other Offices of Inspectors General, if necessary--conduct an investigation[.]"

[March 31, 2017 Letter to the Attorney General of the Department of Justice Jeff Sessions]
From the Letter: "Yesterday evening, you indicated in a television interview that the Trump Administration will pursue criminal charges to curb the number of alleged leaks of classified information from within the government. Your comments appear to contradict your earlier statements about the scope of your recusal from any investigation of the Trump campaign, and we write to you for clarification."

From the Letter: "We are writing to request that the House Judiciary Committee conduct hearings on the operation of the Michigan Emergency Manager Law and its role in the tragedies concerning the poisoning of Flint's water and the dangerous deterioration of the Detroit Public Schools.

[June 1, 2018 Letter to the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Kirstjen Neisen and Attorney General of the Department of Justice Jeff Sessions]
From the Letter: "We are disappointed that Secretary Nielsen's previously planned appearance for June 7, 2018 before the House Judiciary Committee has been cancelled, which compels us to write this letter seeking immediate information and a briefing by your agencies on the humanitarian crisis that is playing out along our Nation's border. The Administration's recent implementation of a 'zero tolerance' policy towards border crossers apprehended between ports of entry has resulted in the criminalization of asylum seekers and a drastic increase in family separation. As Members of the House Judiciary Committee, we take seriously our oversight responsibilities and believe that it is imperative that you immediately provide us with additional information about the impetus for, and the impact of, these new policies."

[June 28, 2018 Letter to the President of the U.S. Donald J. Trump]
From the Letter: "We have repeatedly expressed our disagreement with your Administration's decision to separate families at the Southern border. We remain opposed to any policy that separates children from their parents or legal guardians in order to deter future migrant flows. Such a policy is inhumane, cruel, and un-American. We have concerns not only with the policy itself, but with the chaos and confusion that this Administration displayed in its implementation. [...] The human cost of this incompetence is evidenced by the pandemonium in immigration detention centers across the country, as desperate parents and traumatized children attempt to locate each other with minimal success."

[November 1, 2017 Letter to the Chairman of the House Committee on the Judiciary Bob Goodlatte]
From the Letter: "In recent weeks, our citizens and, individually, Members of Congress have focused on and discussed various issues related to the scourge of firearms violence that plagues our country. However, this Committee has taken no action. Inaction, when there are issues that we must examine and steps Congress must take, is no longer an option. [...] In fact, when legislation weakening our laws on silencers and armor piercing ammunition was being prepared for floor consideration, this Committee waived jurisdiction, despite a request from the Ranking Member that it not do so."

[December 1, 2017 Letter to the Attorney General of the Department of Justice Jeff Sessions]
From the Letter: "After your recent appearance before the House Judiciary Committee, we remain deeply concerned about the security of our next federal elections. [...] The threat of foreign influence in our elections is real, present, and endangers the most basic notion of democratic process. We believe these facts are more than enough to put the whole government to work to secure the election process."

From the Letter: "We write to request that the Committee hold immediate hearings to examine vulnerabilities in our election infrastructure, threats posed to that infrastructure by foreign actors, and what steps the Trump Administration may or may not be taking to ensure the integrity of our state and federal elections. We believe the threat is urgent."

[June 21, 2017 Letter to the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Bob Goodlatte]
From the Letter: "The House Committee on the Judiciary has a responsibility to step in and do its job. We therefore write once again to request you schedule hearings to examine events that now extend well beyond any investigation into Russian influence--including the firing of FBI Director James Comey, allegations of obstruction of justice, and the inconsistent application of the Attorney General's recusal from these and related matters."
