Williams Response to FBI Recommendation

July 5, 2016

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Roger Williams (R – Austin) today released the following statement on FBI director, James Comey, not recommending criminal charges be brought against Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server while secretary of state:

“From the very beginning, this investigation was more about protecting Secretary Clinton’s reputation, than actually finding out the truth. FBI Director Comey himself stated that Secretary Clinton knowingly used her personal email for classified information, was careless and reckless and used terrible judgment. The fact that the FBI will not recommend prosecution is alarming and quite frankly, a failure of our justice system. It is clear to me, and anyone else who looks at the facts, that Hilary Clinton broke the law and lied to the American people.”
