Congresswoman says FBI declined her request for a briefing after indictment of U-M protesters

Congresswoman Debbie Dingell stated she was unaware of federal charges against pro-Palestine protesters at the University of Michigan until they were unsealed. She requested a briefing from the FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office, which declined due to an ongoing investigation. Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib raised concerns about potential political motivation behind the charges, citing involvement of 17 law enforcement agencies.
