Senator Jeff Flake Senator Chris Coons
Senate Republican Whip John Cornyn objects to adoption of a bipartisan
resolution agreeing with the intelligence community's assessment on
Russian interference in the 2016 election. The resolution, offered by
Senators Jeff Flake and Chris Coons also commends the special counsel's
probe on Russian meddling, reaffirms that Russia should be held
accountable, calls for hearings on what was discussed in private between
Presidents Trump and Putin at the Helsinki summit, and it also calls
for additional sanctions on Russia. Following objection of the
resolution, Senators Chuck Schumer and Robert Menendez introduce another
resolution rejecting the request from Russia that it be allowed to
question former U.S. Ambassador Michael McFaul regarding alleged crimes
by financier Bill Browder, a critic of the Putin government.
