There is the federal false information act (or something named like that) which makes it a federal crime to deceive Congress. That’s by what you say or by what you left unsaid.
I’ve written to my Congress-critters and their reason for not contesting the electoral vote was the Factcheck COLB - which Obama knew was a forgery and failed to publicly state. Thus deceiving Congress.
It doesn’t matter if Robert Gibbs or somebody else put the COLB on Obama’s campaign website for him; if Obama did not correct their claims that his genuine COLB was posted online, then he is guilty of breaking that law - deceiving Congress by what he failed to tell them.
