Boyle (PA-13) and 15 members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee requested an urgent hearing to examine reportedly deliberate attempts by foreign governments to influence the outcome of the 2016 election. In a letter sent to House Foreign Affairs Committee Ranking Member Eliot Engel (D-NY), Congressman Brendan F. Boyle and his Democratic committee colleagues wrote, "We cannot ignore these facts merely because Election Day has come and gone. The Committee must understand and be prepared to counter what constitutes a potentially unprecedented intervention by a foreign government into U.S. elections." The letter was signed by Representatives Gerald E. Connolly, Brad Sherman, Gregory Meeks, Albio Sires, Ted Deutch, Brian Higgins, William R. Keating, David Cicilline, Ami Bera, Alan Lowenthal, Grace Meng, Lois Frankel, Joaquin Castro, Robin Kelly, and Karen Bass. ### To read the entire letter, click here | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
