“Like a House of Cards, the Trump Administration is being exposed as a House of Lies”

Washington, D.C.— Today, U.S. Congressman Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), Ranking Democrat on the House Ways & Means Tax Policy Subcommittee, issued the following statement after news reports on Donald Trump's Jr.'s emails revealed Russian contact prior to the election:

"Like a House of Cards, the Trump Administration is being exposed as a House of Lies, compromised by the Russians and seriously jeopardizing our national security. As with Trump's prior repeated duplicities, most Republicans once again sit mute—willing to ignore any wrongdoing in the hope that he will deliver the golden ticket to secure more tax breaks, gratify Wall Street, and deny millions health care access."
