Justice to provide access to Comey memos to GOP lawmakers
By Katie Bo Williams - 04/19/18 03:55 PM EDT
The Justice Department is expected to provide a group of House GOP members access to fired FBI Director James Comey's memos documenting his interactions with President Trump on Thursday, according to a DOJ official.
It is unclear whether copies of the documents will be sent to Capitol Hill or whether lawmakers will be required to travel to the Justice Department to view them.
House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) was poised to subpoena the department over access to the documents. The seven memos have been a flashpoint in the debate over Comey's handling of the investigations into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's private email service and into the Trump campaign's alleged ties to Russia.
