Jill Stein's Campaign Recently Turned Over Documents To The Senate Intelligence Committee
The campaign of Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein has recently turned over documents to the Senate Intelligence Committee as part of its Russia investigation.
North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr, the chair of the committee, confirmed to BuzzFeed News on Monday that the Stein campaign had provided documents, which the committee requested at the end of last year. Burr declined to answer additional questions about the documents, including when the campaign turned them over and what time period they cover.
“We got a sufficient supply; we got an adequate response from them,” Burr said Tuesday.
A source close to the committee told BuzzFeed News that the Stein campaign had turned over documents to the committee in recent weeks. A spokesperson for the Stein campaign said that they “will soon be completing [their] submission to the Senate Intelligence Committee.”
Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, the vice chair of the committee, told reporters Tuesday that the committee had “received in the last — even just in the last few days — thousands of pages of ... documents regarding some of our witnesses,” but declined to identify the witnesses.
The committee, which is leading congressional investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election, took an interest in Stein late last year, requesting that her campaign provide documents as part of the probe, BuzzFeed News first reported in December.
