Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Tuesday that he wants to release the findings of his investigation into the federal Russia probe before the November election.
Graham, speaking to a small group of reporters, said that he planned to wrap up the Judiciary Committee investigation by September or October.
"I want to do it before the election, I want to get all the information out there," Graham said when asked if the plan was to release the report before the election.
Graham's timeline, which was first reported by The Hill last week, would have him releasing a report on the committee's probe only weeks before the November election, where Trump is set to face off against former Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee.
In addition to the Senate panel examining Crossfire Hurricane, the name for the FBI investigation into Russia's 2016 election meddling and the Trump campaign, Graham has said that his investigation will also look at the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, or FISA court.
Republicans have pushed to specifically examine the handling of the investigation of former Trump national security advisor Michael Flynn, which was part of the Russia probe.
Asked on Tuesday if releasing the report shortly before the election made it look like he was trying to influence the election, Graham replied: "I'm trying to explain to the American people what happened."

Baloney. I think Graham and the other RINOs just want to drag it out as long as they can
Lindsey Graham, “I did everything by the book.”
It’s unbelievable that South Carolina can’t find a worthwhile Conservative to beat this tepid piece of crap of a senator.
