THE BARE STORY
Sen. Maggie Hassan, the incoming Democratic chair of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, has asked former Department of Homeland Security adviser Corey Lewandowski to preserve records related to contracting during his time at the agency.
Hassan said the committee could use compulsory process as it examines potential waste and corruption. Her letter also requested that Lewandowski provide relevant records, according to the committee’s stated plans.
Lewandowski has denied wrongdoing. His attorney previously said Lewandowski was not legally required to comply with an earlier request from Hassan, when Democrats were in the committee minority.
Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma said he intends to become the committee’s top Republican in the next Congress. Lankford said he was prepared to work with Hassan on bipartisan oversight but would oppose what he considers excessive actions by the Democratic majority.
