Rep. Nadler Threatens to Hold Barr in Contempt

HeadlineMay 03, 2019

Jerry Nadler, the chair of the House Judiciary Committee, is threatening to hold Barr in contempt for refusing to comply with a subpoena for the full redacted Mueller report.

Rep. Jerrold Nadler: “We will continue to negotiate for access to the full report, for another couple of days. And, yes, we will have no choice but to move quickly to hold the attorney general in contempt if he stalls or fails to negotiate in good faith.”

Congressmember Nadler made the threat after William Barr refused to appear before his committee on Thursday.
