Washington, D.C. – Today, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer issued the following joint statement on the release of Special Counsel Mueller’s report:

“The differences are stark between what Attorney General Barr said on obstruction and what Special Counsel Mueller said on obstruction.

"As we continue to review the report, one thing is clear: Attorney General Barr presented a conclusion that the president did not obstruct justice while Mueller's report appears to undercut that finding."
