Graham Will Fight Subpoena In Court, Attorneys Said

Attorneys for U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Bart Daniel and Matt Austin, in a statement released Wednesday, said Graham was not the subject or target of an investigation from Fulton County, GA investigators.

The attorneys said Senator Graham was only sought as a witness and Tuesday’s filing from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was a “fishing expedition” and Fulton County was “working in concert with the January 6 Committee in Washington.

The Georgia prosecutor filed petitions to subpoena Graham, along with former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and other members of former President Trump’s legal team to testify before a special grand jury.

Daniel and Austin said Graham was “well within his rights to discuss with state officials the processes and procedures around administering elections” based on his standing as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The attorneys added that the senator plans to challenge the subpoena in court.
