Having searched the transcript yesterday, for the word "recuse," I don;t believe your assertion is true. But I am certainly willing to be corrected.
Jeff Sessions confirmation hearings, Day 1 (summary only)
Sessions said he would recuse himself from an investigation of Clinton if Trump follows through on his promise to prosecute her, given his criticism of her on the stump for Trump.
I believe it was during his appearance before the Senate committee in June 2017 that Sessions said he knew before he was confirmed as AG that he would have to recuse himself from any investigation into campaign collusion with Russia.
