Several Republican senators on Thursday called for CBS News to release the full 60 Minutes interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, after allegations surfaced that the network edited the VP’s answer.

During the interview, host Bill Whitaker brought up U.S. foreign aid for Israel in its war against Hamas and said “it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening” to the U.S.

In the pre-taped version released in clips on Sunday, Harris responded: “The work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region.”

In the version that aired on Monday Harris said: “We are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end.”

The Harris campaign has denied any involvement in the decision to edit the interview, but former President Donald Trump has called for CBS to lose its broadcasting license.

“If the Harris campaign stands by all of the vice president’s comments, then I’m not sure why they wouldn’t support releasing the full interview,” Senate Minority Whip John Thune told the Daily Wire. “In fact, their refusal to join these calls only raises more questions.”

Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz called CBS out for the edits, claiming that it ha caused “real damage to their credibility going forward.”

Sens. Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, have also called for CBS to release the full transcript of the interview. 

“CBS has proven its bias,” Senate Republican Conference Chair John Barrasso told The Daily Wire. “A news organization should never selectively edit a candidate’s words. The American people deserve full transparency and the full transcript.”

Federal Communications Commission chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said that the FCC will not revoke the network’s license just because a candidate does not like the coverage.

“While repeated attacks against broadcast stations by the former President may now be familiar, these threats against free speech are serious and should not be ignored,” Rosenworcel said, per CNN. “As I’ve said before, the First Amendment is a cornerstone of our democracy.”
