The FBI last month released the name of a Saudi official from a 2012 report the bureau has long declined to release, turning it over to lawyers for families of 9/11 victims. Saudi Arabia has denied any connection to the 9/11 hijackers.

“The American people deserve to know exactly what happened and who was behind it,” Gabbard said Tuesday. “I’m calling on the Trump administration and the FBI to release the findings of their investigation.”
