Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) demanded on Monday that Republicans investigate a whistleblower complaint believed to concern President Trump's call to Ukraine's leader, including holding a hearing and issuing a subpoena.
Schumer, in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), said Republicans should "fulfill your constitutional duty" in the wake of the whistleblower complaint, which has not been divulged to Congress.
"In the face of this dire warning and the Trump Administration’s effort to cover it up, the Republican-led Senate has remained silent and submissive, shying away from this institution’s constitutional obligation to conduct oversight," Schumer wrote.
