U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth joined a group of senators in a call for the Inspector General of the Department of Justice to investigate Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ involvement in the firing of former FBI Director James Comey.
Duckworth and eight other senators sent a letter to the Inspector General Thursday saying that his role in Comey’s firing could be in violation from Sessions’ recusal from investigations into 2016 campaigns.

“Despite this recusal, Attorney General Sessions appears to have been intimately involved with the May 9, 2017 dismissal of Federal Bureau of Investigation (“F.B.I.”) Director James Comey, who was in charge of an investigation of the Trump campaign and its ties to Russia,” reads the letter. “On Monday, May 8, 2017, Attorney General Sessions went to the White House for a meeting with President Trump and Rod Rosenstein, his Deputy Attorney General, in order to discuss the removal of Director

Comey.”
