The request could reinvigorate legislation that would protect Mueller from being fired without cause. The measure won bipartisan support from the Senate Judiciary Committee in April, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said it wont get consideration by the full Senate.
In view of the tweet, "I think it would be helpful to have the debate on that bill," Collins said. It would send a message to Mr. Mueller that he has strong support in Congress.
