Press Releases

Today, Congressman Jodey Arrington (TX-19) released the following statement following Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election.   “No collusion, no obstruction, no surprise. After almost two years, unlimited investigatory authority, and millions of taxpayer dollars spent, the Special Counsel has confirmed that there was no collusion between President Trump and the Russian government to influence the outcome of the 2016 election,” said Arrington. “I suspect some of my Democrat colleagues will continue to stoke suspicion and cynicism about the report itself rather than focus on solving the real problems facing our country. However, I believe the vast majority of my fellow citizens, regardless of how they feel about President Trump, will have little patience for this political posture of endless investigation. “While I am pleased with the outcome for our country’s sake, I have serious concerns about the process leading to the Special Counsel’s appointment. Anyone at the Justice Department who was involved in breaches of protocol and political bias that led to this probe should be investigated with the same level of scrutiny as the President was. These individuals must be held accountable to prevent this from happening to someone of either party in the future.”
