Die Ernennung eines Sonderermittlers ist der richtige erste Schritt, aber eine unabhängige Kommission ist weiterhin erforderlich
The voices of millions of Americans, from all parties and every point on the political spectrum, have been heard tonight. The appointment of a special counsel to oversee the investigation of Russia’s interference in our election and possible connections between the Trump campaign and the Russian government is a positive, necessary first step in response to their demands for an independent investigation.
This is proof that our democracy is resilient. But we must remain engaged to ensure that Congress and the Department of Justice act to protect the independence of Director Mueller’s investigation. Common Cause continues to support creation of an independent commission, similar to the 9/11 Commission, to augment the efforts of the special prosecutor and follow the evidence wherever it leads.
