What’s stance on hacking

Sun., Jan. 1, 2017

What is Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers doing about the Russian cyber attack into our election? I was so happy to see that on Dec. 15, Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass, a senior Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, sent a letter to Chairman Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, requesting a bipartisan open investigation into Russia’s election interference.

I assume that the congresswoman shares my deep concern that a foreign government is influencing our elections. Will she make a public statement in support of an open investigation? Or is the congresswoman once again putting party loyalty before the integrity of our national election and the people she was elected to represent by remaining silent?
