Barr Joins Call for Benghazi Probe

 I support H. Res. 36, introduced by Congressman Frank Wolf (R – VA) to create a House Select Committee on Benghazi.

H. Res. 36 provides the legislative platform for the truth about what really occurred in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 through an investigation led by a single, bipartisan panel that can cut across jurisdictional barriers in Congress, hold public hearings and subpoena witnesses, including senior staff at the Defense Department, State Department, CIA and the White House.

Benghazi is a matter of national security. A single select committee, with Members of Congress and investigators from each of the five House committees presently investigating the attack working together to ensure a seamless review of all of the facts, is the best way to get to the bottom of what happened.

We owe it to the families of the four Americans killed that fateful day to  hold those responsible accountable.

Congressman Frank Wolf reports that H. Res 36 has more than 180 cosponsors – a majority of the majority in the House – and is endorsed by The American Legion, the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association, groups within the Special Operations community, the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal, respected national security leaders, like former Attorney General Mukasey, and some of the family members of the Benghazi victims.
