WASHINGTON – After Google officially declined the request from the Senate Judiciary’s Anti-trust Subcommittee to have the company’s Chairman Eric Schmidt or CEO Larry Page testify before the committee, Ranking Member Senator Mike Lee released the following statement:

“I'm very disappointed in Google's response to the request to have Larry Page or Eric Schmidt testify at our subcommittee hearing.  I'm committed to work with Senator Kohl and others on the committee to ensure we have the opportunity to investigate these issues thoroughly and receive adequate responses from Google.”
