GOP Lawmakers Press DOJ to Investigate Michael Cohen for Perjury

House Republicans accuse the Justice Department of ignoring requests to probe Michael Cohen's contradictory testimony, alleging a double standard in legal enforcement.

  • House Republicans Elise Stefanik and Mike Turner have repeatedly urged the DOJ to investigate Michael Cohen for perjury related to his 2019 congressional testimony.
  • Cohen, once a lawyer for Donald Trump, admitted in court to lying about Trump’s financial statements.
  • The lawmakers highlight a perceived inconsistency in the DOJ's actions, comparing Cohen's case to other high-profile prosecutions.
  • This push for investigation comes as Cohen serves as a key witness in ongoing legal actions against Trump.
  • The DOJ has yet to respond to the lawmakers' requests, raising concerns about political bias in legal proceedings.
