I refuse to stand by as this Administration tries to take a page from the old Washington playbook and sweep this under the rug"
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and former state Attorney General responded to reports that firearms traced to the alleged Fast and Furious" gun-walking operation also turned up along the Texas-Mexico border in El Paso in addition to Phoenix:
Attorney General Holder and Justice Department officials have refused to come clean on this ill-advised and reckless operation that sadly has had grave consequences for our own law enforcement.
Mr. Holder owes Texans a full accounting of any alleged gun-walking scheme based in our state and I refuse to stand by as this Administration tries to take a page from the old Washington playbook and sweep this under the rug with an election fast approaching."
Sen. Cornyn has previously sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder demanding answers following other press reports of alleged Texas-based gun-walking programs similar to the Fast and Furious" operation currently being investigated by Congressional lawmakers.
