FBI Director Christopher Wray said on Tuesday that he is doubling the number of FBI staff to handle House Judiciary Chairman Rep. Bob Goodlatte's records request related to the panel’s inquiry into alleged bias at the Justice Department, as well as the investigation into the handling of the Hillary Clinton private emails probe.

“Up until today, we have dedicated 27 FBI staff to review the records that are potentially responsive to Chairman Goodlatte’s requests. The actual number of documents responsive to this request is likely in the thousands,” Wray said in statement, revealing he is doubling the number of staff to 54.

"The staff will work two shifts per day from 8 a.m to midnight “to expedite completion of this project,” he said.

“I agree that the current pace of production is too slow,” said Wray, adding, “As the Director of the FBI, I am committed to ensuring that the Bureau is being transparent and responsive to legitimate congressional requests.”

Goodlatte, R-Va., sent a subpoena last week to the Justice Department for documents related to the agency’s investigation into Clinton’s private email server in 2016.

Goodlatte and House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., requested the documents four months ago.

“Given the Department’s ongoing delays in producing these documents, I am left with no choice but to issue the enclosed subpoena to compel production of these documents,” Goodlatte said in a Thursday letter.

The subpoena also seeks documents on possible abuses pertaining to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
