Rep. Schiff on MSNBC: We Will Do Oversight, the Work Republicans Completely Abdicated

On Tuesday, November 6, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) joined MSNBC’s Brian Williams, Rachel Maddow and Nicolle Wallace to discuss the momentous news that Democrats had retaken the House.

During the interview, Schiff said that Republicans had “completely abdicated” their responsibility to do oversight. “The majority went further by being complicit in the president’s attacks on the independence of the Justice Department, on the men and women of the FBI, on our intelligence community.”

Democracy gained three big things yesterday: an opposition with a policy voice, an opposition with a veto on major policy matters, and an opposition with the power to conduct investigations. That's big. Very big. And important. Very important.
