House Intelligence Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Thursday morning that he hopes Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein stays past the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report.

“It’s not enough that he stick around until Bob Mueller finishes the report,” Schiff told CNN’s Alisyn Camerota. “If the new leadership in the Justice Department is inclined to bury the report, I would hope he would stay and fight to make sure the Congress and the country get to see what Bob Mueller has found.”

He added that, whatever Rosenstein choses to do, Democratic lawmakers are determined to release Mueller’s findings to the American public.

NBC reported Wednesday that Rosenstein intends to stay until Mueller’s report is released.
