'It's not clear to me what the admin. is hiding from the Congress': Leader Jeffries on U.S. Iran strikes - MSNBC [View all]



House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., said that he has requested a briefing for top lawmakers in Congress on the situation in Iran, but one hasn't happened yet. He then accused the Trump administration of hiding information related to Iran from Congress.

“And it’s not clear to me what the administration is hiding from the Congress and from the American people,” Jeffries said. “If they have a case to make, come up to Capitol Hill and make it.”

Asked for comment, the White House pointed to remarks this morning from press secretary Karoline Leavitt who told reporters that Trump officials did call Democrats about the situation in Iran. The White House, however, didn't address whether a formal briefing would be provided as they typically take place on Capitol Hill amid major events. - Aired on 06/23/2025.
