They can issue statements, as the ranking Democrat did here, contesting the findings of the report:

Yes the minority members of a committee can issue their own reports, e.g. [0]. It probably won't happen in this case because the "other" party just wants this issue to go away. Arguing in public would only draw attention.

From tptacek's comment, made ~5 minutes before yours:

Why would they want to avoid discussing this?

That looks like a different thing? I.e. a "memo" prepared by "staff"?

Nevertheless I'm sorry to have made a comment that seemed partisan. The Democrats and Republicans can both jump in a lake for all I care.

No, it's the response of the ranking minority member of the committee that produced the report we're all commenting on. It's right there in the title.

I'm interested in figuring out what you mean by your remark. You're saying nobody wanted to talk about it, but it seems for opposite is the case. What prompted your original remark?
