The Department of Justice (DOJ) has chosen U.S. Attorney John Lausch of the Northern District of Illinois to supervise the production of documents requested by lawmakers.

The FBI on Monday will provide 3,600 pages of documents in accordance with a request from the House Judiciary Committee.

Lausch "will have independent authority to oversee this production and report progress to the Attorney General,” DOJ spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores said in a statement.

“Mr. Lausch will also be available to meet with members of Congress to discuss the redaction process to ensure that they remain confident in the Department’s efforts to be as transparent as possible with the Committee.”

The move comes after House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte Robert (Bob) William GoodlatteNo documents? Hoping for legalization?
