Washington – Following reports that the White House is limiting the scope of the investigation into sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh, Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), Mazie K. Hirono (D-Hawaii), Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) wrote White House Counsel Don McGahn and FBI Director Christopher Wray today demanding that the investigation include all three allegations received by the Senate Judiciary Committee, including claims brought forward by Julie Swetnick. The senators provided a list of individuals who must, at a minimum, be interviewed by the FBI based on facts that are already known.

October 1, 2018

Mr. Donald F. McGahn, II

Counsel to the President

The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW

Washington, DC 20500

The Honorable Christopher Wray

Director

Federal Bureau of Investigation

935 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW

Washington, DC 20535

Dear Mr. McGahn and Director Wray:

The Senate Judiciary Committee announced last Friday that it would request that the White House instruct the FBI to conduct a supplemental background investigation with respect to the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. Because of the importance of this investigation to the Senate’s consideration of this nomination, we are writing to request that you provide an explanation of the scope of the investigation.

On September 12, Ranking Member Feinstein referred Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation of sexual assault to the FBI. Since then, the Committee has received serious allegations from two other women – Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick. These three women have come forward at great personal risk, identified themselves by name, submitted written allegations to the Committee, and requested an FBI investigation.

We believe that all three allegations should be included in the supplemental investigation. We are providing a list of individuals who we believe should be interviewed at a minimum as part of this investigation, along with any others identified by witnesses or the Bureau in the course of its investigation.

We ask that you confirm that the FBI background investigation will include the allegations of Christine Blasey Ford, Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick and that the FBI will perform all logical steps related to these allegations, including interviewing other individuals who might have relevant information and gathering evidence related to the truthfulness of statements made in relation to these allegations. We ask that you notify us of the scope of the investigation and what the White House directed the FBI to investigate, as well as what steps the FBI will be taking. We also ask that, upon completion of your work, you provide copies of all witness interviews, a list of all witnesses who refused to cooperate in the Bureau’s investigation, and a full report to each member of the Senate.

We believe that providing this important information to the Senate and American people is the best way to ensure public confidence in the results.
