Investigating Russia’s Interference in Our Democracy


Center for American Progress
1:15 - 2:30 PM EDT

Russia’s interference in our democracy represents a serious challenge to U.S. national security. It is urgent that the United States get to the bottom of what happened. Yet the current state of the investigation in the U.S. House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence raises serious concerns about Congress’ ability to conduct a thorough and independent investigation. This event will feature remarks by Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT), who is a member of the committee.

Please join the Center for American Progress for a timely discussion about investigating Russia’s interference in our democracy.
