House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md., backed calls by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Tuesday for an investigation into President Trump’s ties to Russia and the possibility that he has been compromised by the Russians.

Hoyer told reporters during his weekly pen and pad that it would be a “dereliction of duty” on the part of House Republicans not to investigate the alleged ties to the Russians, pointing to Republican-led investigations from the 1990s into the Clinton administration and into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s role in the Benghazi terror attack in 2012.
