Insider reports that Pramila Jayapal, Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair, withdrew the controversial letter to the president on Oct.

25.

Jayapal claims that the letter was written months ago and "unfortunately was released by staff without vetting.".

Jayapal took responsibility for the letter's release after withdrawing it.

But Insider reports that a former Hill staffer said that anything leaving her office without approval is an "absurd" claim.

Everyone who has worked with her office knows that she keeps a tight grip on media relations.
