Cornyn blasts Clinton for avoiding ‘important laws’

Published March 8, 2016 3:10pm ET



Sen. John Cornyn blasted Hillary Clinton Monday for what he characterized as a deliberate attempt to skirt the Freedom of Information Act by hiding her emails on a private server.

“It’s pretty clear based on published reports that Secretary Clinton went out of her way by paying money out of her own pocket to avoid important laws that Congress has passed to guarantee the American people actually know what their government is doing,” Cornyn said during a speech on the Senate floor. “And I’m talking particularly about the Freedom of Information Act.”
