Hnited States Senate WASHINGTON, DC 20510 April 28, 2017 The Honorable James B. Comey, Jr. Director Federal Bureau of Investigation 935 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20535 Dear Director Comey: On March 20, 2017, we wrote you regarding Attorney General Sessions false testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee concerning his multiple contacts with Russian officials during the presidential campaign, including reports of an undisclosed meeting with the Russian ambassador at a small, private campaign event in April 2016. Since our letter, new and troubling details regarding Russian interference in the 2016 election have continued to emerge, including additional revelations of contacts between senior Trump campaign officials and Russian officials. Our previous letter to you requested that you investigate all contacts the Attorney General or his staff may have had with the Russian ambassador, or any other Russian officials, and whether any laws were broken in the course of those contacts or in any subsequent discussion of whether they occurred. We ask that you update us on the status of this investigation and brief us on this matter by Friday, May 12, 2017. Sincerely, PATRICK LEAHY AL FRANKEN United States Senator United States Senator
