Attorney General William Barr told lawmakers on Friday that he received a report from Mueller and will share its conclusions possibly as soon as this weekend.

Barr said he will consult with Rosenstein and Mueller “to determine what other information from the report can be released to Congress and the public consistent with the law.”

The White House has said that the next steps are up to Barr. Democratic leadership has pressed for the report to be made available to Congress and the public.

“I think we should wait for the full report to be issued before jumping to any conclusions,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said at a press conference Friday evening after a reporter asked about reports that there would be no new indictments.
