We Lead Effort to Defeat Amendment That Undermines Accountability for the Department of Justice

June 25, 2020–On the eve of the committee vote for the Inspector General Access Act, it was discovered that an amendment was proposed that would weaken this legislation’s pursuit of accountability at a time when our nation needs it most. Due Process Institute partnered with FreedomWorks and other groups to urge Senate Judiciary Committee members to oppose the amendment and support the underlying legislation. During the bill’s markup, this amendment was overwhelmingly defeated and the Act as been advanced to the Senate floor. Now we need a vote! #Accountability
