GOP Reps. Jim Jordan, Ohio, and Mark Meadows, North Carolina, sent the letter to Attorney General William P. Barr.
“In sum, Mr. Cohen’s testimony … was a spectacular and brazen attempt to knowing and willfully testify falsely and fictitiously to numerous material facts,” they wrote. “His testimony included intentionally false statements designed to make himself look better before a national stage.”
Last year, Cohen was sentenced to three years in a federal prison for lying to Congress in 2017.
