Rep. Sean Duffy said Monday he would like to know about both the Trump and Clinton campaigns’ contact with Russian officials during the election.

“We need to and want to see all the meetings that the Trump campaign had with the Russians and I think we should see all the meetings the Clinton campaign had with the Russians, and see what the Russians were trying to do in our elections,” Mr. Duffy, Wisconsin Republican, said on CNN.

Mr. Duffy said he was encouraged that Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser, was disclosing his contact with Russians to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on Monday.

“I think transparency is always a good thing. And if it didn’t happen when it should’ve been disclosed it’s good its happening now,” Mr. Duffy said.
