The lawmaker who questioned her at the hearing, Representative Mike Quigley, Democrat of Illinois, said in an interview that he believes Ms. Murphy misled him and his colleagues. He said he is eager to question her further: “What was said in those meetings?”

In April, Murphy did not disclose she'd met with the President about the project when asked by Rep. Mike Quigley, an Illinois Democrat, during a congressional hearing if the President or anyone at the White House was involved in the discussions about the future of the FBI building.

Three months later, during a congressional hearing, Rep. Mike Quigley (D-Ill.) asked the GSA’s Emily Murphy, “To your knowledge, was the president or anyone else at the White House involved in those discussions, either with your predecessors, people you’re working with now, or yourself?”

The letter was from five top Democrats on key committees that oversee federal buildings: Elijah Cummings of Maryland from the Oversight and Government Reform Committee; Peter DeFazio of Oregon from the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee; Gerald Connolly of Virginia from the oversight subcommittee on government operations; Mike Quigley of Illinois from the appropriations subcommittee on general government; and Dina Titus of Nevada from the transportation subcommittee on public buildings.

Illinois Democratic Rep. Mike Quigley called on Thursday for General Services Administrator Emily Murphy to testify again about President Donald Trump's involvement in stopping the relocation of the FBI headquarters after a watchdog report said she "misled" Congress.

Quigley joins Emily Chang to discuss the alleged Chinese hack of major U.S. companies and provide the latest updates from the ongoing Russia investigation.
