The chairman of the House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed four State Department officials as part of the panel’s investigation of the deadly assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, last year.
Republican Rep. Darrell Issa said in a
statement and letter to Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday that
delays in scheduling interviews with the officials were taking too long
and he had no choice.
“These persistent delays create the
appearance that the Department is dragging its feet to slow down the
Committee’s investigation,” Issa wrote in the letter to Kerry. “It does
not require weeks of preparation to answer questions truthfully. These
delays also take us further in time away from the dates of the events in
question.”
