Trump administration has angered Senate Republicans after failing to obey a law requiring it to report to Congress its conclusions about who is responsible for the death of Jamal Khashoggi.
A deadline last Friday imposed in 2018 by 22 bipartisan senators was ignored by the White House. The lawmakers had called for an investigation into the killing of the journalist, who was allegedly strangled and dismembered in October inside a Saudi consulate in Istanbul.
The probe, which specifically directed the White House to conclude whether Saudi crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman was responsible for the murder, was requested under the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act.
A senior administration official told Politico Donald Trump “maintains his discretion to decline to act on congressional committee requests when appropriate”.
But Marco Rubio, a Republican senator who sits on the committee, said the Trump administration’s failure to meet the deadline “violates the law”.
