Committee Activities in Past Congresses: Department of Justice

Minority Views on the Department of Justice Investigation

The majority’s December 13, 2000, report on the Department of Justice is based on unfounded allegations, unfairly smears numerous individuals, and is highly partisan. The minority views respond to the majority’s claims and describe the Committee’s unfortunate recent pattern of improperly injecting itself into prosecutorial decisions. Several individuals named in the majority report or who represent individuals named in the majority report have written the Committee to register concern about the majority’s report.
