DNC Chair Tom Perez released the following statement:

“Obstruction of justice is a crime. Suborning perjury is a crime. These grave allegations should be investigated immediately. And if they prove true, the president must be held accountable for these crimes.

“House Republicans dragged their feet, looked the other way, and did everything they could to protect Trump from the rule of law. Now that Democrats are in charge, we will not rest until the American people know the whole truth.”
