Michigan Congressman John Moolenaar says it's an important step toward ensuring the FBI’s investigation is independent and has the trust of the American people.

This after Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from any current and future investigations into foreign interference in the 2016 election.

During his Senate confirmation hearing, Sessions failed to disclose two pre-election meetings with Russia's ambassador to Washington, at a time when Moscow was accused of interfering in the presidential race.

Other lawmakers are calling for Sessions' resignation, accused him of lying to Congress.
