The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has struck a deal with the Justice Department to end a lawsuit filed seven years ago over the Operation Fast and Furious scandal.
According to Politico, the settlement ended the drawn-out legal fight that began in 2012 after then-Attorney General Eric Holder refused to hand over documents related to the scandal, which resulted in the House holding him in contempt. As many as 2,000 weapons were illegally sold in Mexico, including one that was suspected in the death of a Border Patrol agent.
