‘Made some lame excuse’: Trump officials are openly dodging Congress’ lawful demands

Top Trump administration officials are dodging lawmakers’ requests to testify before congressional committees, and in some cases, “not even” adhering to “legally required” requests according to one Democratic senator, The Washington Post reported Saturday.

“Many of these folks are required to come before Congress on a regular basis as a matter of law – and they’re not even doing the legally required parts, much less the additional oversight that’s sometimes needed when there are big issues pending,” said Sen.
