Two years after the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General said it couldn't overturn redactions made by DOJ, Department of State or other agencies to interview transcripts in Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI's surveillance effort involving the Donald Trump campaign, Senate GOP leaders are trying again.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Permanent Investigations Subcommittee Chair Ron Johnson of Wisconsin sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel requesting "immediate action to remove all redactions from the transcripts," 165 of which OIG said were made, "and work with the OIG to produce them to our offices."

The rest of the letter includes the lawmakers' 2023 letter to IG Michael Horowitz, asking for unredacted versions of the heavily redacted 460-page Freedom of Information Act production that OIG gave Citizens United, and Horowitz's pass-the-buck response later that year.
