TX GOP Congressman Stalls Benghazi Probe! Outrage Alert! Texas Republican Congressman Holds Up Benghazi Investigation! Grassroots America has learned from our friends in the Dallas area that Republican Congressman Pete Sessions is using his leadership position to prevent a floor vote on a Select Committee on Benghazi. Members of the Dallas area TEA Parties have brought the issue up multiple times, but Rep. Sessions refuses to relent. It is especially maddening to find out that Republicans in House leadership positions seem to be working as hard as the Obama Administration to keep the American people from the truth! Seven hundred military special operations professionals have signed an open letter calling for the establishment of a House Select Committee to fully investigate the murders. Over three-quarters of the House Republican caucus (163) have joined the public call for a House Select Committee. Sadly, Speaker John Boehner’s ally – Rep. Pete Sessions – has been using his position as Rules Chairman to prevent the resolution from even receiving a vote! The resolution has been stuck in Pete Sessions’ Rules Committee since January!

Frank Wolf lays out the case for a Select Committee on Benghazi. Watch it, then call Pete Sessions! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_AZcJptxQk Call Congressman Session’s offices today and ask the questions“Why won’t Rep. Sessions support a full investigation into the four Americans who were murdered in Benghazi? Why won’t Representative Sessions stand up for the grieving families who lost their loved ones as our government turned its back on them?” Let Pete Session know that although you don’t live in his district, you will support a challenger for Congressman Sessions if he is too cowardly to stand up for our military. Tell him to allow a floor vote on House Resolution 36 to authorize a House Select Committee on Benghazi! Washington, D.C.
